Green Acres is the place for me, ...can't remember the rest of the words to the song. Chim in, if you do. This is, as you can see bright lime green. I am the first knitter on this preemie blanket already headed to the next knitter. With the title of Green Acres, I imagine as the blanket grows we'll see lots of shades of green being used. Kinda fun to start one and think up a title/theme.I cast on 102 and used a new stitch...well new to me that is. It's called horizontal dash which is an 8 row repeating pattern. I like texture when using a solid color, as I don't think stitch varieties show up when using variegated yarns.
This preemie blanket is for OddBall Knitters who donate to hospitals all over the country for The Linus Project.
Who's counting down til New Years with either crafts or home projects?
I love love love the color.
ReplyDeleteYour stiching ideas are so unique.I am a big fan of your's sandy because you are simply fabolous in your blogs.
ReplyDeleteThat stitch does look interesting. I think you are right about combining texture and solid color yarn. You can see the texture, and it makes the yarn more interesting.
