Want

I want this.

No, I haven't a clue how to do multiple colour knitting. When will that stop me? ;)

(This is a reminder for myself... but I must reduce my stash and WIPs first. That, and increase the bank account... poor, wimpy bank account.)

Hmmm... I wonder if the library has it...

  1. Hello,

    A lot of the Baltic countries do similar sorts of things. I saw a book with patterns from Latvia? (one of those) at the Chapel Hill Public Library recently. There's nothing very hard about two-color knitting. Show you next time you turn up on Tuesday evening. Good for you for dissertating and getting the bug out.

  2. Hi Margaret! I may come out one day if I feel like hiking the whole way home... ;) Nice hearing from you! Did you notice the sock pattern link I added in the sidebar?

    I know the Baltic countries do similar stuff... I particularly like the colour gradations & combinations used in these patterns. I may try designing my own, since it's much cheaper than paying ~$40 for this book. ;)

    I think I have a website bookmarked that explains two colour knitting... I'll need it when I get to the "H" on my Weasley. ;)

    See you around. :)

  3. Hello, again,

    You'll be pleased to know that I have one and a half sock fronts. Perfect thing to do to abate the Sunday blues. For my next act, the heels.
