The cobweb weight shawl/scarf is finished. The color-way, if I say so myself, is stunning. I can say that because this knitter had nothing to do with the making of the yarn. The basis for the pattern came from http://www.canknit.com/free/kos.html. The yarn was purchased at the 2006 Michigan Fiber Fest from Skaska Designs. It is 100% Merino. Unfortunately Skaska Designs does not list prices or how to purchase from them via the Internet other than sending an e-mail to them. Warning: If you were to knit this shawl be prepared for a lot of boredom.
Update to yesterday’s blog: The pattern is from the Summer 2007 issue of Spin-Off magazine. The leg pattern is a modified basket-weave. Rows 1 and 2 – K3, P3, K1; Rows 3 and 4 – P2, K4. That’s it folks! If I were to use the pattern again, I would carry the pattern on the top part of the foot and plain stockinette stitch for the toes only rather than the whole foot.
"Knit on!"
