Men Who Knit Promoting and inspiring the art of knitting amongst men.

Hey!

This got written for the KR retreat in November -- and I blame it all on A*n*y*i*; who denies responsibility....but it's her fault anyway...

Ghost Knitters in the Sky

Finally finished the "Mermaid Scarf," which is just a scarf knit in Mistake Rib pattern with knitted fringe.

Ok, here it is, my first scarf and my first blog posting on here. I just started to pick up knitting about three weeks ago and practiced on some yarn I had laying around.

I knit these from Regia Strato Color on size 2 DP bamboo needles. They are from a 1936 Minerva pattern and turned out to be more like knee socks.

I'm pretty proud of myself at the moment - I finished a little 42" scarf for my 3 year old daughter. Yes, it was garter stitch.

At Yugi Dean's request, I'm posting a picture of the hat inside out.

boy - I'm sweating bullets trying to whip the Spanish Armada pattern into shape.

So I just finished the first project for 2008.

Ok, this is my first attempt at stranding. No pattern, just a practice piece I made up as I went along just to learn the technique.
