Knitting…
April 14th, 2010 Posted in knittingI sent some knitting to my niece a while back and completely forgot to take photos before I sent it. She was kind enough to send photos along.
This yellow scarf is from a lovely soft yarn. It’s 2×2 rib with a garter stitch end just to make it more interesting…
Yellow Scarf
And these hats were knit as a not-quite-pair for my great niece Julie and her new sister Ivy. The ruffles around Ivy’s hat were done by casting on 3x the number of stitches I needed and doing a few rounds (just ordinary all-knit-stitch hat knitting) and then knitting three together all the way around to reduce the number of stitches. Julie’s hat is lots of 2×2 rib for extra warmth, then all purl for the blue stripe for texture, then regular all-knit for the white. I also made a matching blue hat for my sister (their grandmother) so that everyone kind of coordinated. The picture of that one is here: blue-and-white hat. I know the blues don’t look the same in the photos but oh well.
