So yesterday was the most lazy day I’ve had in a long time. Basically I knit and napped all day.
I worked diligently on the Danish Tie-Shawl and bound it off, but as you can see it back live and on the needles again. It needed to be about 3-4 inches longer. It was 21 inches once off and after trying it on, I think about 25 inches would be a lot better. Anyway, I was trying to get away with just using the blues, but I’m just about out now of the blues. So when I put the brown in it didn’t work before, so now I’m just decided to do two rows of each color at the end until I get to the length I need, working the browns in.
I think it’s working ok, but now I’m just like this thing needs to get done before I send it back to the frog pond. I keep tellling myself that this is a ultilitarian piece and I’ll be wearing it with jeans and it will all be fine. Although now that I’ve done this once, I’ll be planning my colors a little differently.
ETA – here’s another picture.








I think that would look wonderful with a pair of jeans. I love the color combo also.
I’m soooo much in love with this color combo that I can’t understand you don’t love it too
I need to get back on track with mine. I would love to wear it as the weather’s getting cooler… oh well, one of these days I’ll get back to it
Cheers Eva
I’m done with mine and love it – it is in natural colors – and I would probably plan my striping better next time, too I love your blues – you’ll enjoy it once the weather cools! I can’t wait to be able to really wear mine! enjoy
