The point of the endeavor was to reinvent the use of silk, and no one else knit it, so i felt pretty ok about it! hehe. Maybe I'll post a picture soon...Kristin2008-11-04T14:00:14ZStirring the pot a bit...Auntie Pitahttp://knitabit.tribe.net/thread/1e1776ba-421a-4116-9474-45c01165773a#5d9d76ed-b533-4792-8aa9-bafde9287eef2008-09-23T19:14:20Z2008-09-23T19:14:20ZSo... been mighty quiet here...
What are 'we' working on?? What type of yarn... what needles... details, details please!
I just finished a 'mystery' shawl kal, from Goddessknits, in (stull shuddering at the thought being the yarn snob that I am) acrylic TLC baby yarn. I am now working on a scarf from knitty.com...
