..KNITTING SWAP..

JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU GUYS WHAT I GOT FIXED UP FOR MY SWAP PARTNER OVER IN ITSY BITSY ON RAVELRY..

THE SWAP FOR JANUARY AND FEBRUARY WAS HEARTS AND DARTS BUT I MISSED OUT ON THAT SWAP..SO I WENT FOR THE MARCH SWAP WHICH WAS NECK WARMERS/COZY AND SOMETHING GREEN FOR ST.PATTYS DAY..

THIS IS THE COWL I KNITTED..THE PATTERN DIDN'T CALL FOR COLOR CHANGE BUT I WANTED TO SEE IF I COULD COME UP WITH MY OWN DEAL..I GUESS I SUCCEEDED..IT LOOKS OK..:):).

THE PATTERN IS CALLED FRESCO BASKET WHIP..VERY SIMPLE..I DIDN'T SLIP THE STITCHES AS IF TO KNIT THOUGH..I THOUGHT IT WOULD GIVE IT MORE TEXTURE IF I SLIPPED PURL WISE..

I'M NOT REALLY GOOD AT MODELING THE KNITTING I DO..SOME PEOPLE CAN DO A REALLY GOOD JOB AT IT AND TAKE GOOD PICTURES..BUT ANYWHO..THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE FROM THE BOTTOM IF YOU WEAR IT..

FROM THE TOP..

SHE ALSO GOT A CUTE SHAMROCK CLOTH..

NOW I'M GETTING READY FOR RAVELRY OLYMPICS..OUR GROUP IS CALLED THE ITSY BITSY CRUEL CURLERS..!!..DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I AM GOING TO DO THOUGH..I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT A FEW PATTERNS..I WENT AND BOUGHT SOME DPNS THE OTHER DAY..MIGHT TACKLE SOMETHING WITH THOSE..I ALSO PICKED OUT SOME YARN FOR WHAT I MIGHT DO..

HOPE EVERYONE IS STAYING WARM..NO SNOW FOR US IN AWHILE..HOPE IT STAYS THAT WAY..:):)..
