Everyone who knows me a little bit also knows that the last person to need a new and unique hobby, is me. I am also a prolific knitter and crochet only under duress (when the edges of something fancy demand it). I had a terrible time learning it as a child and was not interested in the frustration. I could never get the gauge right. Imagine my trepidation when my niece wanted to learn over spring break. And then imagine my surprise when I was able to make a quick swatch using THIS video almost instantly.
Happy Weekending!
Yarn is hand-spun by the friend I never met, Anne Cohee. I’m not sure she did anything but spin in her retirement, but I’m not sad. Yarn is held double and knit with size 13 needles.
Merry Christmas! 🎁🎄
I really wanted to continue making trees in the style of my Yarn Forest, but I forgot the physical pattern before leaving for vacation. So I found this cute pattern from the Fuzzy Mitten.
I offered if my mom wanted to try knitting a few rows, and she declared that she wanted to make sure and knit fast so she could take it home!
At least I know what to give her for Christmas this year! The other blanket (Afghan #11) was also highly loved upon, so I may have another holiday gift in my head…
