KAL - Stage 2

must get me some longer circulars.
i put on two 29 in. needles so i could fold up nicely to show you.
love love love love love this wide seed stitch border.
still wishing i could have found a worsted cotton to use.
but this yarn is "like butter". so i am enjoying every stitch.
working on KAL with Firefly on her I Live On A Farm blog.

KAL

i started a KAL with Firefly on her I Live On A Farm blog.
she promises the pace will be s-l-o-w.
and has named it Summer in the Country Blanket.
i picked T'ika. by Mirasol. 100% pima cotton. very very soft.
of course there are issues with my choice i am overlooking right now.
hand wash. more of a DK thank a worsted. using #9 instead of #10.
and pretty sure that i will need to get more yarn than suggested.
because i think a DK row height is smaller than a worsted row height.

i ♥ quick knits

Fishermen's Beanie from Rowan Classic book 17.
Debbie Bliss. Donegal Aran Tweed. 100% wool.
#6 & #7 straight needles.
i was wanting a windy-day-walk-on-the-beach-hat.
like a cotton and silk that the pattern called for.
but opted for this wooly-stuff until that other yarn comes my way.
