A weekend project.
Having some chunky yarn left over, I figured I could take it with me and use it for a Loop Scarf. Although I took an additional ball in a matching colour along, it turned out the 3 times 50 gramms of the olive-green colour were just perfect.
What pattern should I choose? Garter Stitch? Knit-One-Purl-One?
I settled for a Double Moss Stitch. It's almost as uncomplicated and I love the look of it.
In that way the Scarf is related to this one here, the Blackberry Scarf, that I wrote down the pattern for.
And here are the instructions/pattern for the Loop Scarf:
Yarn Weight: Bulky/12 ply (7 wpi)
Yardage: 82 yards (75 meters)
Need: 150 g (3 units à 50 g)
Needle Size: 8 mm (US 11)
Size of Finished Scarf: approx. 22 x 145 cm
Cast on 30 stitches.
Row 1 and 2: *k1 p1* repeat to end of row
Row 3 and 4: *p1 k1* repeat to end of row
Repeat rows 1 to 4 until scarf measures about 145 cm. Weave in ends and sew edges together. Done!
Find this pattern on my Ravelry Design Page as well.
Ein Projekt für's Wochenende. Mit der dicken Wolle war der Loop Schal auch wirklich in ein paar Tagen fertig. Ich habe mich für ein doppelreihiges Perlmuster entschieden. Demnach ist der Schal mit diesem hier verwandt.
Hier habe ich nochmal die Anleitung für den Loop Schal zusammengeschrieben:
Wolle/Lauflänge: 75 m/50 g
Verbrauch: 150 g (3 Knäuel à 50 g)
Nadeln: Nr. 8 (US 11mm)
Grösse des fertigen Schals: ca. 22 x 145 cm
30 Maschen anschlagen.
1. und 2. Reihe: 1 M re 1 M li
3. und 4. Reihe: 1 M li 1 M re
Diese Reihen wiederholen bis der Schal ca. 145 cm lang ist. Fäden vernähen, die Seiten zusammennähen, am Besten im Musterstich. (Ich lasse dafür eine Seite offen und vernähe den überstehenden Faden mit einer Nadel durch die Maschen der gegenüberliegenden Seite.) Fertig!
While away, I read but the newspaper and an older article that my husband had saved for me from the Süddeutsche Zeitung (24th of July) that I had taken with me. It's a portrait of a scientist, Howard-Yana Shapiro who would research successfully on the genetic code of crops in particular, just to share his research results on the Internet. His goal is to find better plant cultures to "feed the world". Meaning, with his studies he wants to support farmers, for example in Africa, instead of companies who are supposed to exploit farmers, while those don't have enough food to feed themselves and their families. Very interesting.
Otherwise I am looking for a new book to read, maybe I'll find something appealing amongst the participants of Ginny's Yarn Along.
