Cast on for my niece in a stripy yarn she admires every time she’s in my craft room. Will block out long so she can tie it in the back like a shrug. added short rows to each side before the last set of eyelets so it was longer and made it have a little…
Bought a selection of colors seen in nature and supplemented it with what was left in my baby yarn stash of the same base. Picked hexagons for being from the “Bee” family and game inspired because a lot of board games use hexes too. Most of the hexagons are a unique set of 3 colors….
Wanted something that would work as a baby dress this summer and then be a tunic as she gets older. Adjusted the pattern to work in the round, be more full of a dress, and have ties instead of shoulder straps. Lace is slightly askew on part of the skirt but it’s not too noticeable….
Added the rest of the yarn from Crockern Tor as the edging. Cast on for guthstorm in March and knit during ZK in June.
two unicorn tails. hand balled the night of purchase. knit from the center out to make a headband/scarf that feather and fan’d out from an i-cord into leaf like motifs at the end. Used all of the yarn, with just the ends left for a braided bracelet.
