  3. FO: Turn a Square

    March 16, 2010 by sunrisesister

    So, I have the flu. And on Sunday I could do little else but sit, and knit. And watch Sci-Fi. I bought these BWM Rustic 8Ply yarns last year, when I was planning to knit N a stripy vest. But then Bossman declared that Vests Are Gay, so that idea got shelved. And the Koolhaas I made N last year got worn, and worn to death, so he needed a new beanie.

    Brooklyn Tweed came to the rescue again!

    Great easy, quick, free pattern. A tick in every box, really. Truth be told, you CAN treat Rustic 8ply like a worsted weight. But also, this hat is ALMOST a little big. I say that, but N prefers his beanies to cover his ears and neck, so it’s worked out well. Next time I would be tempted to go down a needle size.

    Sticks: 4.5 and 5 mm

    Today, the Flu has moved south to my chest, so I think some more Sci-Fi and a new project might be prescribed..


  4. For Kelli

    So the lovely Kelli sent us a gorgeous parcel last week.. Actually it was the week before, but things have been a little frantic around here, so this is the soonest we could do a wee photo shoot for her..

    Many many goodies, but the stars of the show were the longies and cardi..
