I was supposed to be working on the mid-gauge charts for the new book, but instead, I knitted this last night:
This was made on the Brother bulky, and could probably be done on any machine with a ribber. It didn't take too long, but I did have to pay attention! I'll put up a video. I want to make a larger item, a "Bubble Wrap."
That is beeooooteeeful! I messed around with a lacy edging from a sweater pattern and made 3 cool scarves from that yarn that has possum in it. Don't cringe - this possum is a marsupial from New Zealand and is considered a pest animal, so they are using its hair to spin with merina to make a soft, warm yarn. They are really lovely, but I had to really concentrate while I was doing it - couldn't even listen to music without making a mistake! Very hard to hold my concentration long enough to finish a little scarf - don't think I'd make it through a shawl! Brenda
Very nice! I look forward to the pattern. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is lovely! Will you publish the pattern?

I would love to play with that possum yarn. It's pricey, isn't it? And very warm?
