I've have always wanted to make this scarf. In fact, it was one of the first patterns I ever printed out when I learned to knit. I've seen it all over Blogland, but not recently which is probably why I didn't think of it right away. The stitch pattern is not reversible, but the back looks nice and neat.
BFY Fourplay (color: boots) knits to a different gauge than the recommended Manos del Uruguay. I started out using size US 11 (8 mm) needles, but the stitches were loose and sloppy. Dropping down to a US 10.5 (6.5mm) and adding four stitches gave me the look I was going for.
I love it when yarn and pattern come together so perfectly!
That looks interesting. It looks like it's going to show color seperation really well.
ReplyDeleteThat looks great!
ReplyDeleteI really like how the stitch pattern shows off the colors in the yarn! Those colors remind me of autumn!
ReplyDeleteCatching up after being out of the woods.
ReplyDeleteThe stitch pattern really does a lovely job of showing off the colors!
I have enjoyed your beach and family photos! I'm just sorry I didn't know about that beach all the times we were in that area.
Blue norther reports bring back memories of going into class at University on a warm day, in shorts and tank top, and coming out ready to walk home to find below freezing temperatures.
Stay warm :)
What a great yarn and stitch pattern combo. That looks like a stitch that would make me very happy to knit. :)
