Started a shrug a few weeks ago using some Homespun yarn in the color Windsor from a local chain store.........................
I knitted this shrug using the large Knifty Knitter loom and a skein and 1/2 of yarn. It was very easy to create and many TV shows later I had something to be real proud of at last!
A simple e wrap stitch was all that was needed.
There is a local yarn shop in town called Sunflower Fibers located downtown. I took a ride over last weekend and found some cuddlies to bring home with me;) (The lady in the store asked me if I would like the yarn wrapped into a ball---should have let her though because I had a huge mess w/o it done! Thinking of going by there tomorrow to have her do the yarn below for me!)
A mix of baby llama's wool,merino wool and angora which is very soft in pretty blues.
Trying my hand on a knitting board currently with some Abuelita 100% Merino yarn in Orange Sherbet. I picked up a great book that is packed with lots of wonderful stitch how-to's and projects. My first project is a blanket that will have many squares about 5" long each. Each square will also be a new stitch to master.
Relaxing and rewarding!
See ya'll later!
