Yarn: patons Worsted (2 Skiens)
Needles: 11

Row 1: Knit
Row 2: Purl

Repeat until desired length. Just make sure you end on a purl row.

Now knit 4 drop the next stitch. Pick the bar you just dropped and repeat across the row.

Now unravel your dropped stitches.

Now block.

This is going to grow... a lot

Let dry and enjoy!

He loves me... He loves me not

Nothing is worse than the man you've been with, whos has told you that he isnt looking to date anyone, tells you that he's been dating someone for the past month.

Which means he wasn't in the mood to day YOU!

Then you find out that the man he's dating not only looks like you but shares you name....

So which asks the question...
"Why not me?"

Earl grey

What u need:
1 set of size three dpn
400 yrds of fingering weight

Cast on 60:

Foundation rows
Knit 1 s1wyf* to end
Purl 1 s1wyb* to end

Now arrange over three dpns being sure not to twist the stitches

Knit 3, Purl 1

Continue for 9 inches (or desired lenghth)

Thumb gusset:
On either side of the purl stitch on the last repeat, your going to do a lifted bar increase. Knit into the back of the stitch to keep it tight. Then knit three rounds even keeping the 3x1 rib up the back and palm.

Your gonna want to increase this way till you have 9 stitches in either side of the center purl stitch. (K3,p1,k9, p1, k9, p1, k3)

Place the new 18 stitches and the central purl stitch on waste yarn

Cast on 1 on the last needle

Now when you knit in pattern you will start and end the row with a purl stitch for one row.

On the next you will purl the first and last stitch together and continue the k3p1 up ur plam for 4 inches and bind off.

Now go back and pick up the stitches on the waste yarn.

Knit 9, purl 1, knit 9, cast on one

Knit the thumb in a 9 and 1 rib for one inch and bind off

Sew the hole on tje btm of the thumb gusset closed and your done!

I hope that makes since. Any questions please let me know...

And This is why I love Ebay

I was able to score this for a whopping $5.55

3 balls of  5% Cashmere  45% Wool  50% Acrylic lace wight at 600yds per ball so that means I have enough to make a nice damn project WOOHOO!

Now what to make...*ponders*

UPDATE... I just seen someone bought a pattern from me on Ravelry... so I bought this lot too....

(insert squeal here)

Almost there

So its 3:35am and I beed to put this away cause I'm tired and we all know being sleepy and knitting DO NOT MIX esp. When it involves counting....

Tho I only have five more repeats to go before this bitch is done so that's good...

But me things those repeats will have to wait till tomorrow.....

My newest obsession

Going from buljy knitting to lace... ya just call me Sybil
