Last week I finished off this
throw. It didn’t take very long to put a
simple garter stitch edging on it.
Sewing in the ends took a bit longer.
I am happy with the end result – it is all man-made double knitting yarn – so it will be easy to wash. I used 5mm needles which makes the finished knitting more light-weight. Each square is made up of 61sts (30 = 1 = 30). There are 8 different striped patterns and no squares are the same. The throw is 8 squares long and 6 squares wide.
While I was knitting I was thinking about other colourways and other striped patterns which I had not used because I was restricted by the amount of yarn I had.
This week I have been working on
the throw which is made up of 96 individual squares. This
is much harder than the throw I have just finished and when I have finished – I
have all that joining to look forward to.
