How to kill a gansy

The idea was to test the warmth of the garment in white and then in navy. You'll have to do that in a thermally neutral situation then - no cheating by sitting in sunbeams in a navy sweater and calling it "warmer" *g* |

How to kill a gansy
The rush to dye was so I could wear it in yesterday's rain storm. And, more
rain tomorrow. Hopefully that will give me the confidence to wear it salmon fishing - and not take backup gear.

How to kill a gansy
skrev i melding et... I started another gansey last night from a very soft Scottish yarn worked double. On my gansey needles, that gives me only 6spi so it should go pretty fast, but there are 10 stitch panels each of which have cables and diamonds --so may go slow. I am hoping that the gansey will go *much* faster than the swatch (8.3 spm : - (( If not, there will be sleepless nights in June. Aaron Aaron, It sounds lovely! And I think it always is like that; we start with a swatch, do the first pattern repeat, and think the work will never end. And suddenly we discover that we do the pattern correctly , pretty fast without thinkeng of what we do. I am always surprised over what has happened, but I guess it is what I try to achieve with my pupils in school! LOL! And IF you get sleepless night, I think you have had less pleasant sleepless night earlier ;-) Good luck! AUD ;-) |
