The Wekend Is Almost Here
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: Yeah!
I am so glad that it is almost the weekend. I have had a doozy of a week. I haven't even had time to think about knitting anything. However last weekend I made a couple of new items. I made a cocoon on the Brother 260. It is so simple and goes really fast. You use almost the whole bed and skip groups of needles so that you get a really slinky link fabric. It is made as a rectangle that is folded to create a cute jacket. I made two, one in Homespun and the other in Red Heart Super Saver yarn. I like the one made in Homespun much better because the fabric drapes and is softer. I used two strands of Red Heart held together and that seemed to produce a stiffer fabric. It is a little too heavy for this climate.
