I have cast on 50 stitches on 6mm needles and started with 4 rows of garter stitch, then I am working 5 edge stitches of garter on each end and stocking stitch in the center. Every once in a while (totally random) I throw in a reverse stocking stitch row (purl on the right side) for texture on the plainer yarn bits.
I like the look so far, and it is fun to see what yarn will show up next. There are boucles, chenilles, and eyelash yarns, in several colours, browns, blues and purples. I have three skeins of this, so it should make a big wrap. The regular price of this yarn was $35 a skein, but I snagged it for $6 each! I think it knits up better than I imagined when I grabbed it in the mad dash for bargains that night. Cool.
Here's a zoomed, blurry photo of the bunny in the back yard. I did not get too close as he was so relaxed and cute to watch.
hi Sharon!
