What is the pattern for that fantastic cowl she's wearing!?
ReplyDeleteHi Bonney,
DeleteDonna is wearing one of her {very popular} designs, the Bobble and Eyelet Infinity Scarf. Here's a link to it on our website: http://www.nobleknits.com/new-street-knitter-bobble-and-eyelet-infinity-scarf-mobius-knitting-pdf-pattern/
I have been knitting and crocheting for 20 odd years. Have never seen or heard of the instruction to M1 st. What is it, how does it work and please explain! This is the most beautiful scarf I have ever seen. cabarabol@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI have a pattern in mind that calls for mercerized cotton, gauge 14st/18rows = 4" in ST st. I can find no place on the site that tells me if today's sale yarn (a tie-died cotton yarn) is mercerized and what the gauge is. Where is this information located? Thank you very much.
