I sold off my only red buck last year, so I had to buy a new one. His twin sister was so cute, I got her too. They were
born in January and already need haircuts.
I spun up a
freeform novelty yarn
celebrating school days. When a portion of it did not look right
with the rest of
the skein, I removed it and then got hooked into knitting it up. I am now spinning another 75 yards to go with what I have, so it will be long enough. I chose to use a size 11 needle. I could have gone with a larger needle, but I wanted
to see how much the edges would curve in and out due
to the textures. I cast on 22 stitches and am just doing garter stitch. I thought about doing a log pattern design, but decided that I would have to spin even more yarn, since I
would be
binding off stitches and
losing in size.
