Today we have winter sunshine and frost on the garden where the shadows lie - cold and pretty. I too have had a busy few days. Firstly, I did research on the web and found various pages (with diagrams and pictures) of moebius projects at different stages od completion. Then I researched some more about different methods of cast on, then I got to the "knit it and try it out" stage. I have had so much fun doing all this and am now part way through my first moebious project. :-) Mirjam, thank you so much for your encouragement without which I probably would not have tried. Thank you also to Aud - seeing the lovely shawl you made also gave me the confidence to try. Eventually I decided to make up my own pattern for a scarf and hood combined which would be useful to me. It is being worked in a lace stitch, on 4mm needles and with a cream coloured yarn made of 70% acrylic and 30% kid mohair - very soft and fluffy, (I am allergic to wool). I found that the cast on with a crochet hook was easiest (having tried the one with waste yarn). Having made a swatch the size and tension should be all right. The jumper I started before I went into hospital has been put aside for the moment. Oh, happy days! All the best Bernadette -- |

All the best Bernadette Wow you 2 girls put me to shame......I have a baby hat half done and decided a few days ago to try the Heartbreakingly Cute Baby Kimono in the Mason-Dixon Knitting Book....so far I am finished with the bottom....increased for the sleeves and working one of the neck edges......at first the directions made no sense [knit 34 sts and bind off 25 and knit to end] so I did what I do with senseless crochet patterns and just went step by stepG not reading ahead and now it makes sense. I am hoping to give the finished hat and kimono as gifts. Donna |
