I took this pattern as inspiration and made it my own with a custom bottom, working circularly instead of flat, and eyelets for a drawstring before the handles. Bottom notes: I used short rows to make the center of the base be wider. Then I used short rows on the sides to create a boat-like…
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….
finished the first diagonal stripe and found it would be hard to do the short rows after the stripe two at a time (2AAT). hibernating while I decide if I want to do them one at a time.
sample knit for October 119g to start. swatch 4g. ~3g/repeat.
Rather than using a variegated yarn, I had red and white so I made stripes for the corners.
