can you have too many needles and too much yarn....

greetings earthlings

I have come to take over the planet!!!!!!

:)

do you have one of these?

as a child I had one made from a thread spool and it made tiny little cords

now you can buy steroid fed ones

 I think with the large end one could probably make a small pouch if you used thick enough yarn!!!

 I have finally decided

(well I think I have

we'll have to see how I get on!!!)

what I will do with my

yarn dyed and spun by

Ruth

 

I found it on

Knitty

it's called

Clapotis

I've seen it around for a long time but never stopped to look at it

and I think it will suit the yarn

or is it the yarn will suit it???

at the very end of all the knitting you get to drop a whole bunch of stitches

on purpose

and it makes stripes!!!

I like dropping stitches

on purpose

:)

I also have this yarn that I love

so I'm going to see what it looks like in

Entrelac

and this yarn that I bought a few days ago

coz I couldn't help it!!!

found a really cool pattern for this

don't recall the name of it

you start with one stitch

add on with a Kfb on all rows

and then when it's wide enough

you make short rows until you run out of stitches

and then you turn and start again

and it ends up making a zig zag....

I should look for the pattern and link to it!!!!

edit

 here is the pattern

:{  :}

I knitted for two evenings and got this far

one more ball and that's it

it's very long and skinny

and it's wool so it's warm

very warm

but the weather is changing again

it's like a roller coaster here these days

and these are some stitch markers I made with some tiny buttons and jump rings

this one is made with a

cloisonne bead

hope all is well in your part of the world

stay warm and safe all

see ya!
