Tuttifrutti

Monday, 30 June, 2008

More “brag” posts about what I've been making lately. This one was made from a ball of yarn that Di gave me as a prize for being one of the first to comment on a particular blog post. I couldn't think of that many one-ball projects, but I was lucky in that this yarn (Tuttifrutti) was 100m long. I decided to make a scarf out of it:

The pattern basically went like this: *k4, k1 with the yarn wrapped around the needle twice, k1* (repeated). I never knew that wrapping the yarn twice around the needle produced the longer stitch (discovered this on pages 13-14 of the May issue of Lincraft's How to magazine).

Golly, the first two picture made me think, “What is that?? Pizza??”. Then I read the post.
