Another Adventure Begins

My oldest just got her temps (temporary driver's license ) today! Yikes!

Driver's Ed is keeping us busy this fall semester and it conflicts with Knit Night! But this too shall pass.


Knitting update:
Christmas projects are getting started and more importantly finished! Shhhh! That's all I can say for now.

Pi Cloth

A circular lace cloth knit in the round on size 2 double pointed needles. Great tutorial for new lace knitters! This is a charted pattern.

Interested in knitting a Pi Shawl? This cloth pattern will give you a chance to practice the skills you will need but on a smaller scale. This cloth knits up quickly in a day or two.

This pattern has links to tutorials every step of the way….from the lighter circular cast-on all the way to the knit on edge. Also included…a link to learn how to read charts. Don’t let charts scare you, they really are not so bad once you get used to them.
