Today was a knitting day. Every day there are about 6 different things I want to do between the hours of 8:30 and 10:30 PM, when I am in charge of me. At about 7:30 AM, I think I will do them all because I love ‘em all. But if I actually try that, it is not a good scene. So I’ve recently accepted one activity per evening.
Tonight’s was good. I cast on the LMKG chevron scarf yesterday, and it was fun to watch the pattern develop as Netflix kept my ears entertained. I know it’s just the beginning of this project, but I think I could make a lot of these because I really like patterns of mysterious origin, like string quilts. With these types of things you start, but you do not know where it will end up. I have never done a mystery quilt, but I know I would really like to do one.
These yarns are not those yarns. They are the yarns Eva and I kool-aid dyed a couple of weeks ago. She did the pink and green, and I did the other two. I was amazed at how well the “handpainting” worked. I tried both the cold pour and the dip dye methods. It’s really so much fun that I could do it all the time. Now what to make with this stuff…
