Holiday Kal 4 #1

Here's my first entry for the holiday KAL. I have another one or two coming depending on what I manage to finish by Saturday.

This is the Bunratty Baby Blanket and it was done in sport weight baby yarns. I used two different kinds of Bernat Baby, and the purple is Loops & Threads. I did this on a G hook.

I only made 36 squares instead of the amount the pattern called for, but because I did this with a continuous braided join instead of mattress stitching the squares together, and then I gave it a border, I'm probably still at 1500 yards or thereabouts. The yarn scale says it weighs 27 oz, but I'm not sure it's being weighed properly, heh.

Last one for Holiday Kal

Een eenvoudig paar sokken dit keer, gebreid in Trekking Maxima. Deze voelen warm aan, en het garen wilde absoluut niet tot sokken met een patroon worden verwerkt. Dan gewoon - en nu kun je het streeppatroontje goed zien. Ik vind ze wel grappig!


A simple pair of socks this time, knit in Trekking Maxima. These feel warm, and the yarn resisted to be worked into socks with a pattern. Now you can see the striping in the socks. I think they are cute.

These socks are going in the mail today to Marianne.
I used 330 meters to work this pair, on DPN's #1.5
