Two FO’s in one post, go me!
Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008Extra yarn arrived, shawl finished. Finally.
It’s still too short for my tastes so I’ll likely never use it. I don’t have time to do it now, but I’ll add the specs here and to Ravelry when I get back from my visit to Small Town.
I tried and tried to knit the baby sweater out of scraps. If you counted all the swatches I made you could say I’ve knit this little thing twice. Especially considering that when I got to the second side, I realized that I left out a repeat on the first side. Or so I thought, now I’m not so sure. Being as I haven’t actually ripped that one out yet, I’ll go back and verify if I did or didn’t leave out a repeat. But, because I had to order more KnitPicks, I also ordered some yarn to make the little sweater in a solid color. It only took a couple of days and I finished it before I tackled the bind off on the shawl.
The ties aren’t on it yet. I’m taking it with me to Small Town tomorrow to see if daughter wants a loop and button, or the ties that are in the pattern. I do plan to make this again, only I’ll use the multiple colors.
I need your help. Tell me which picture best shows the shawl on your monitor. On one computer, one looks better. On the laptop, the other one looks better.
