I Did It Again

OK. There might be men in white coats coming to my woolly corner of yarn. I actually knitted shawl number four from the german pattern. This time in the soft and yummy yarn Tynn Alpakka. A gorgeous alpaca yarn I´ve used several times.

I have no excuses - I just love that pattern. And the shawl are wonderful to wear.

I´ve added some glass beads with the tassels. A fish and two hearts actually.

And since we are having loads of snow it is perfect with another shawl. So I tell my self. Not that I am having trouble finding something woolly to wear. Not at all.

Check out the project on Ravelry and see more photos. I had 337 stitches on my needles before BO. I used 3.5mm and 9mm needles on the cable.

Did I mention I´ve started a new shawl - oh no. Oh no....

Have a blessed day and weekend!

  2. Kjempefint og mine favorittfarger også! :) Duskene gjør susen. Jeg var inne å så på mønsteret og det var litt vanskelig å forstå. En tykk pinne, en tynn pinne og vridde rettmasker den ene veien og vrangt den andre? Var det så enkelt?

    Jeg spyttspleiser jeg også inni prosjekter, men det var ikke så enkelt å gjøre det i starten og slutten av hver lapp, så da må jeg til pers med synål.

    Ha en fin helg! :)

    1. Takk Vibeke. Ja, det er ribbestrikk med én vrang og én rett. De rette maskene strikkes hele tiden vridd. Ja, og én pinne på 3.5 og én pinne på 9mm - jeg bruker KnitPro. Ha en fin helg du også!!
