Knitting In Flashes

…and sewing, quilting, painting, and a whole lot more

I won this time

Posted on October 24, 2018 by Patti_is_knittinginflashes

The 1898 cap is finished. Using the teal yarn, 84 stitches were picked up around the top of the headband part for the crown.

The strip sequence was:

4 rows, teal
1 row, black
3 rows, teal
2 rows, black
2 rows, teal
3 rows, black
1 row, teal
Finish with black

I tried a “jogless” stripe technique and though it’s better, it’s not perfect by far.

I won at yarn chicken this time with 50 inches of teal yarn left over.

  This would be a wonderful way to stretch small amount of your handspun yarns.

It looks great! And like it was planned ahead instead of a “how can I use up my yarn?” project. Awesome.
