There is a new KAL!
You need:
- 1 single-coloured ball
- 1 self-patterned ball with a corresponding colour.
Cast on the nessecary stitch count with the multi-coloured wool. I first took a circular knitting needle. You have to knit 6 rows in garter stitches:
Now chop the multi-coloured yarn and take the single-coloured ball. Knit 4 stitches in rib pattern (knit one purl one or knit two purl two). As from now we do circular knitting.
Then turn your knitting work on th left needle full around (backwards) and knit in rib pattern again.
Once more knit 4 stitches in rib pattern, turn full around the knitting work on the left needle (backwards), knit 4 stitches, and so on until the end.
Then knit 10 rows in rib pattern:
Wollschaf is asking:
From the archive from 03.05.2005:
Let us assume: You are in a foreign city, and you don't know the place, for a visit or for holidays, but you sadly forgot to take your knitting work with you. What would you do?
It depends on the circumstances.
When I'm on the way for a short time only (let's say 2 days), I can do without knitting. When I stay any longer, I have to become acquainted with the place and I'm sure, I would find a shop, where I can buy sock wool and needles at least.
I wouldn't start a big project, but you can always need socks, which I know by heart so I don't need a list.
But when I'd discover a great handwork shop, which has a wool in its assortment, that I always wanted to have, it also might be a bigger project...
When I'm traveling, I only can knit in a train. It's impossible for me to knit in the car or bus.
