adapted to add a seed stitch button panel to the Barley pattern. bought the buttons at OFFF with the hope to make this hat and then found the yarn on destash 🙂
Refining my personal pattern by making a shawlet for myself!
fingering held double. cast on teen size to get roughly child size from gauge difference. blackberry: under 2 skeins whisker: 1 skein honeydew: almost a skein celestial: almost a skein
Started out doing bottom up with plans to kitchener, but then my cast on wasn’t as pretty as I liked, so I flipped it on end and seamed up the cast on edge for the top. did several tack stitches to define the ears. It’s a little loose after wearing all day, but not bad….
inspired by ploverbird’s, seen at ZK2014. Knitting in ThreeFates at the same time as her giveaway on the Yarnings Podcast. a girl wizard is named in homage to Eskarina from Equal Rites by Terry Pratchett… the yarn colorway is Merlin so it fits in. Began in April to celebrate my birthday month! Also fits nicely…
