The first thing I  decided to do was pick a yarn, needles and do a gauge swatch. I decided on a worsted weight I had about 1500 yards of Berroco ultra alpaca in my stash. I grabbed some size 7 needles and cast on 30 stitches, I tried to keep the edges from rolling so […]

Well my rude tunic is back at it again. After 3 days in the corner you would think it would know how to behave. However hanging in the corner it seems to have stretched a bit too much.What is a girl to do with naughty knitting to except match up the other side by hanging […]
