What Should I Do?

General Knitting

Look what I got today :cheering:

Now I need ideas what can I knit with it??

There are two balls of each

I bet you all have loads of ideas.

Unfortunately all I can think of is the ‘dreaded scar’ I am fed up with scarfs lol.

Please let the ideas roll in. Its so soft and lovely. I have given it a cuddle already :roflhard:

Thanks in advance :notworthy:

Maybe a bag or a shrug?

A bag sounds like a fab idea. Any ideas which one. I look at these patterns available and I cant choose.
What do you think?

:shrug:

:muah: Sharon

4

What is the yarn content? If it’s not an animal fiber (wool, etc.) it won’t felt, so you’d be making a non-felted bag. That should help narrow choices down some.

hi its 47% wool 6% kid mohair 6% polyamide

Does that help any :??

Thanks for answering me :hug:

:muah: Sharon

OK, it should felt some, but now I need to know if you WANT to felt! :teehee:

7

What about this one from knitty?

http://knitty.com/ISSUEfall06/PATTlittleslip.html

It even uses 2 colors. :shrug:

8

I would LOVE to felt. :cheering:

I will look at the pattern. I may need help with the felting.

:hug: Sharon

Oh that looks hard :oops:

What about an easy shrug? :shrug: :oops:

:muah: Sharon

I didn’t mean to scare you! Sorry!

This is a link to a Knitty Gritty episode where they knit rectangles and sew them together in different ways to make shrugs and ponchos.

3-way Rectangles

11

That sounds more like it :happydance:

I tried the link but I couldnt actually see the 3 rectangle thingy :oops:

I feel so stupid sometimes :doh:

:muah: Sharon
Thanks again you are an angel

What about a poncho?? a hat???

13

Wow I have never been to Knitty before. This is going to keep me going for weeks :roflhard: :cheering:

Would there be enough for a poncho??

:muah: Sharon
