slope

Wednesday, July 14, 2021

Well, I finished this knit at the end of June and kept forgetting to talk about it. Not sure why, as it has been on rotation in my wardrobe since then! I've worn it with these black joggers, and I've worn it with both white and blue jeans. Also, under a jean jacket.

It truly has been a great layering piece.

The yarn was a bit thin. As my friend Linda put it, it was like working with dental floss. I had a few places where the yarn had twigs or something stuck to it. (Ha. Hence the name "twig".) I noticed it after I knit it and tried to pull them out. That did not go well. I decided to leave it instead of ripping it out. It doesn't bother me now.

Pattern: Slope by Shibui Knits

Yarn: 4 skeins Shibui Twig in Caffeine

Needle: US 3

Size: S

Start date: 6.3.21

Finish date: 6.27.21

Modifications: Did not do the German Cast on. I was a bit too impatient for that. I also shortened my high low effect that the pattern called for. To do so, I did my wrap and turns with 5 stitches left before the wrap instead of the 3 stitches the pattern calls for. The pattern calls for a cropped version and a long version. This is right in between both. In doing so, I started my decreases at 1.5" then decreased every 12th round.

"twig" is a minor glitch, but I don't think it's a problem with your whole work! that's great!

I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me. Then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again. If you are going through any relationship stress or you want back your Ex or Divorce husband you can contact his whatsapp +2347012841542 or email emutemple@gmail.com website: Https://emutemple.wordpress.com/
