DNA scarf


I made so many mistakes while making this. I had to frog it many times to get it right. I think the Selvedge stitches at the ends had the most number of mistakes (I think I got the helix right for the most part). I am not sure how I managed so many mistakes at the easiest stitch :) . I made a mistake at the start of the helix, so I purposely did the same mistake at the end of the helix to make it uniform :) .
I didn’t make the back neck ribbing, but knitted the helix throughout the scarf as V wanted it that way.
I used bigger needles, so I used only one skein for this one.
I had initially started this with a dark colored yarn but V said the helix is not very visible on that. So I bought this light yarn and started over.

Yarn used : Caron Simply soft Color: Bone
Pattern : From ravelry

Hat with brim


I bought this yarn at a MisKnits yarn studio here. I had gone there to buy something else. Anyway…This is for my husband. Halfway thr’ I ran out of yarn. I will have to buy more to complete this project.

11/19/08: All done :) . This was loads of fun. I knitted this on loom by holding two yarns(start and finish of the same skein) together. This is one of the quickest projects I have worked so far.

Yarn used : Van Dyck yarns – color #129. I used about 1 and 1/2 skeins.

Here is a video for making hats with brim.

Flowery one skein scarf

I made this after looking at Nupur’s scarf. The pattern is available for free on ravelry.
