Startitus and I sisters from another mother type friends. Her cousin, the morally selfrighteous Finishitupus, and I are not. Startitus and I are giddily planning projects.
1. A scarf made from the pattern on the cover of the left book (Frost Flowers, page 204). It's an old pattern, dating back from the early 19th century and I think will make a beautiful scarf.
This is the yarn. The needles were already with it, as I'd pulled it out last night to start a different scarf. This happens a lot. lol It needs two pattern repeats per row. Planning done. 😁
2. A triangular shawl with the Tiger Eye pattern as a center panel (page 312, 2nd edition). This will take planning on graph paper, as the panel is 25 stitches wide. I like to knit triangular shawls from the bottom up and like them to come to a point, so I think this one will work well. There's yarn already caked up for this one.
3. A beanie/hat/toboggan/tuque using an all over stitch pattern from this book using a couple of never ending scrap balls that I've recently made two hats out of.
None of them take rocket science planning.....especially the scarf. That's just a long rectangle.
Startitus and I are making quilty plans and waiting for the Cross Stitcher magazine CD to arrive. More on those later.
Startitus is a very good friend of mine, too - ;))
