This is my latest project.
I got the pattern here: http://www.craftychickonline.com/Knit%20Star%20Scarf.htm
Its my first time double knitting, and I love it! I’m planning alot of xmas gifts using this- although its a bit slow going, and my fingers get a bit sore. I just love the way it looks, except for the edges. I went to another site, ( http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/advanced-techniques ) that had a nice tutorial about double knitting, and she suggested a different way to do the edges, so I tried it, but I didn’t really like it. As a result, this scarf has very funny, constantly changing edges, but it was just a practice scarf, and my 7yearold loves it anyhow.
I’ve been up today since 3:30am. My darling toddler decided that was the time to get up, and didn’t decide to go back to sleep til 6:00, and there wasn’t much point in going back to bed myself, since I get up at 6:30. So I’m having a hard time keeping my eyes open. I wonder if this post will make any sense tomorrow.
that is awesome!
I wish I could ‘double’ like that! *=* awesome!
GET WELL SOON!
thank you! its not so hard, really. Easier, I think, that normal knitting with 2 colors (though alot harder on the hands!)
