Since last posting I am on to the edging. I’ve been looking at the yarn I have left and thinking whether I could get more from it, but I can’t. Certainly not another repeat anyway.
This is before the completion of the last two repeats.
I’m now onto the last row, although thinking whether to leave it until tomorrow morning. Just to extend the activity. In the meantime, I might see how I can modify the edging, or I might use up the remainder adding an edge to the top to tidy it up.
A guy in to craft, mainly yarn-based crochet, weaving and some basic knitting. I love mixing colours, trying new patterns and stitches. I will also try different crafts such as stone carving, stained glass making, fused glass and leatherwork. I can think of nothing better than being able to say ‘I made this!’ Even if it’s not perfect.

Beautifully made. Difficulty knowing when yarn will run out is a problem with those yarns isn’t it. I have made one garment and have another couple in mind but wondering what to do if it runs out at the wrong place.
That looks great! When I’m coming to the end I weigh the yarn to see how much a row takes then I can sort of guesstimate from there. A bit hard on holiday though I suppose.
Very nice work.

Yes, I tried but the ball band doesn’t give a weight, so I had to weigh the whole thing, but I don’t know that it was correct. All ended well though 🙂

It looks great! And I always wonder how long the yarn will go too 🤔
