2011 Prime Time! May project















Pattern: Decarhombi Bag
Yarn: Plymouth Boku - 430 yards
Needles: US11

Such a disappointment this project is for me. Somehow when picking up the stitches for the closing square, I goofed. Idon't know just what I did wrong, and did not see the problem until AFTER the bag was felted...of course by then it was too late to fix the problem! The resulting shape is a disaster. However, once my annoyance has abated, I will cut it apart and reassemble the pieces into a new, though different, bag. So it won't be a complete and total disaster.

12m/12p/12b 2011 first project







I have a picnic cloth with a pattern I really like, so I used the pattern for the cuff of the gloves and a matching headband. Although I thought the name of this plaid was 'Shepherd's Plaid', it turns out that it is actually called 'Prince of Wales'.

Started: 1 Jan 2011/ Fin: 6 Jan 2011
Gloves used a total of 60 grams/312 yards
