A month or more ago I was out in Alcester looking round the charity shops as usual when I came across this yarn.
Now there's a lady who goes to Crafternoon called Irene (lovely lady) who knits lots and lots of baby blankets using this sort of yarn and it's always fascinated me!!!! So I bought from the charity shop.
Irene always has HUGE balls of this yarn and I knew that I didn't want that sort of commitment so this looked 'just right' to me!!! Three balls of 50 grams each. Just right - but what for?
So, I actually remembered to take my yarn and some knitting needles to Crafternoon last Friday and dear Irene gave me a lesson on knitting with it.
It's not easy to work with but I'll show you progress next week - IF I've made any. Oh, we decided there was probably enough for a scarf but we'll see!!!!
It's squishy and effective once it's knitted, you just have to make sure that all the bobbles are on the right side.
ReplyDeleteLooks interesting, I look forward to seeing what you make with it.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it could be challenging. It will be fun to see the final result!
ReplyDeleteI have similar type of yarn, only difference is that the middle yarn part is not of that much length, the bubbles are close to each other. I don't know what to do with that, any one may please suggest me about that yarn. I liked it and I just purchased it in my last USA trip.
