A New Object

Blue Jean Wrap

Blue Jean Wrap

I have started knitting Blue Jean Wrap – I was looking for something simple to knit while watching television – or when my brain is too tired to do anything else. So far so good, it has an easy to remember lace sequence and once I managed to cast on the right number it has been plain sailing!

The yarn is an aran cotton from Jo Sharp – I bought it unlabelled, so can’t tell you the official colour, it was in my stash, so I feel quite smug about using something I already had.

A Finished Object – Hitchiker

Hitchiker Finished

Hitchiker Finished

I finished the Hitchiker scarf/wrap. This pattern had a lovely rhythm to it. It was the perfect mindless knitting.  I could sit on the couch watch TV and knit without concentration (it was all knit as well – well almost all knit!).

The yarn is a misti alpaca pima hand painted cotton and  silk blend (in confetti) and the pattern is a ravelry download (which you can find here)
