I was looking for a pattern that would allow me to knit without using a border or staying in a simple knit, but also did not end up curling. It seems this would do the trick!
This was taken from here.
I was looking at photos on flicker since I was having some issues with my flicker plug in. I came across this and it looks great for some yarn that I have.
Materials:
•2 Skeins of Manos del Uruguay
•US 11 Needles
•Darning Needle
Glossary:
•psso-pass slipped stitch over
•P2tog-purl 2 together
Instructions:
•CO 30 stitches
•Row 1: K1, *sl 1, K1, psso but before dropping the slipped stitch from the left needle, knit into the back of it* repeat until there is one stitch left, K1
•Row 2: *P2tog, do not slip stitches off the needle, purl the first stitch again, slip both stitches off needle*
•Repeat rows 1 and 2 until you run out of yarn.
•BO.
•Weave in all ends.
What, you didn’t want to sling it over a wooden fence, outside, in the freezing cold? ;)
Purty colours. Very funky munky.
Thanks P!
It IS very pretty isn’t it, however I cannot claim it as my own -it is the photo that came with the pattern -so people could see the stich. I did not knit it -not yet that is!
The blog it came from is called: sheep in the city. Here is the link: http://www.sheepinthecity.prettyposies.com/
Please visit -Its a great knitting blog.
Otherwise -I might have thrown it over a fence outside. This girl obviously has better indoor lighting and camera setup.
