Stash Fidget
The Fidget is a small scarflet that uses the twisted moss stitch for texture and only takes about 100 yards of yarn. You can also make it using almost any weight yarn. For this fidget, I used some DK yarn that I happened to have in my stash but used 2 strands held together throughout. I did like the stitch pattern (which was very easy) but found that the completed Fidget was still curling at the edges even after gently blocking. I might try lightly steam blocking it.
Funky Fur Scarf
- 100gms fun fur or eyelash yarn (e.g. Stylecraft’s Eskimo)
- 5mm needles
Cast on 20 stitches.
Knit every row until you reach the desired length (100gm should result in a scarf at least 6 foot long).
Bind off.
That’s about as easy as it gets.
Scrap Wrap
Just by way of knitting something quick and easy after the ‘cardigan fiasco’, I decided to knit a Scrap Wrap.
Actually, it’s more of a scrap scarf than anything that I’d call ‘a wrap’. Had it completed in about 4 days with another few hours to fringe it. Still not decided whether it looks great or just tatty but I’m leaning towards the former. Mind you, I think I was a bit mean with the fringing, so I’ll probably add some more fringes first and then decide.
Now, where did I put that spare DVD case?
