With the cool, rainy weather we're having (which is a change from the hot, humid rainy weather we had all summer) I've been working on knitting projects in the evening.
I started and finished a cowl on Saturday. Super easy - I used my size 35 needles and cast on 21 stitches. I knit 30 rows for this one but you could do more. Cast off, and stitch the ends together.
Yesterday I started an infinity scarf. With smaller needles than the cowl, it will take longer but it is the same basic pattern. I will do more than 30 rows, as the person this is for wants it long. And I will make it mobius.
Definition of Möbius strip. : a one-sided surface that is constructed from a rectangle by holding one end fixed, rotating the opposite end through 180 degrees, and joining it to the first end.
The colors are off a bit, as it is a rainy morning. You may have noticed I took the photos right under the lamp, the evidences of daily life in the photos; a blue ray remote and another rolled skein of yarn.
How did you welcome Autumn this weekend?

Those are both beautiful! I never learned to knit and only know the basics when it comes to crochet. Maybe someday ...
ReplyDeleteI didn't learn to knit until I was in my 40's. Emma learned first!
DeleteFall was welcomed very quietly... I like the scarf colors. Looks like Melissa’s Inspired Room today. 🙂 Or she looks like you.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say that you have done very little chat about the abominable weather you’ve been having all summer and now into fall. I hope that you won’t mind if I pray that it dries up! Enough is enough...
Enough is enough, I agree!
DeleteThe colors on your scarves are beautiful. I crochet myself, but would like to learn to knit someday. I welcomed fall by getting a spectacular sunburn! We traveled to the Texas Panhandle to a chuckwagon cook-off and I didn't even think about burning until I was already red. It was a brilliant day with blue skies after a hard rain.
ReplyDeleteOur weather here in Central Pennsylvania can be either very mild in September or raging hot. I prefer the mild which has come now.
DeleteOoohhh...love the colors!
ReplyDeletePretty and cozy!! That's a nice way to welcome fall!
ReplyDeleteThe temps are just right! Are you still getting a lot of rain?
DeleteThat is a very pretty color. Today's cooler weather for me meant making bread and baking cookies!
ReplyDeleteOh, that sounds really nice, Melissa!
DeleteBeautiful. Makes me want to start knitting again...
ReplyDeleteI like having something to do with my hands while we watch a movie or a tv show.
DeleteThis is just gorgeous Deanna...I'll bet it's cozy and warm too! Love the colors!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Betsy!
DeleteBeautiful, love the blue! Have a wonderful day dear friend, still not feeling like Fall here in my neck of the woods. HUGS!
