I promised to try and figure out how to do that lovely pattern down below, Oct I think it was, with the twist in the hat and scarf.....
It turned out quite easy so I just did a head band with one twist, so I could show you.
This is knitted, but you could do the same in crocheting.
All you do is cast on 20 sts
Knit first row to the end
*2nd row knit 5st, purl 10, knit 5.
That is what you do 4 rows, (rows 1 and 2)
next knit 5, cast off ten, knit 5 turn
next knit 5 cast on 10 knit 5*
repeat this little set till you have length required. (see 2nd photo)
Then have a good look at the 3rd photo...you sort of twist the first cast off 10 sts and loop it through the next one.
Once you have started it's easy to just keep going till you have done them all.
If you want to do 2 rows next to each other, like the hat below, cast on an extra 15 sts, and do the same thing.
Hope that is clear enough?
See ya
I really do love going to the nursing home facility that I go to, and the lovely ladies there try so hard to "make" something. So this one nearly 90 year old, knitted lots and lots of small coloured squares...then she started to sew some of them together.....then she "hid" the work all together. Several times I had asked her where it was, and for her to get it and bring it, so I could crochet an edge around it for her....she finally brought it out, a bit embarrassed I think. Anyway I told her I'd take it home and see what I could do with it,. She'd sewn about 30 squares together, and still had that many to put to it....so here goes.... This is how it was when I brought it home .... I'd spread it out and had a good look to see what I could do And here it is...done....edge and all hope she likes it! See ya!
