FO Friday Part 2

I'm sorry.
I couldn't wait. 
My mum and dad brought home the girls today after spoiling them for 43 hours.
Her project was beautifully dried...so here's a second...

!

Mom's Moebius:


About two skeins of Misti Alpaca Chunky makes up this moebius. I used Cat Bordhi's CO and Knit Culture's pattern.

I knitted with an 11 Addi Turbo circ instead so the fabric is loftier. The first round was knitted and then I started seed st. So there's this middle ridge (When you use Cat's method, the CO round is the middle of the moebius.) of knit sts which makes it different as Sharon pointed out nicely.

My mum's very happy with it and wanted me to model instead.

Okie! The playdate is going well. The four, beautiful girls are happily snacking and watching Barbie's The Princess and the Popstar DVD right now. Off to start lunch for them.

  2. The moebius you knit for your mom is so pretty. I love the color you used and it looks so soft, perfect fore wearting around the neck. I have moebius knitting on my list for this year, now I just need to learn to knit faster!
    Have a great weekend.

  7. Ohhh.....lovely! Lucky Mum! Your maroon slouchy hat (in the post below)is super lovely too. I wish I could knit as fast as you...maybe when I retire. Ha! Have a super weekend-oh, and did you see I have finally started a pattern with the beautiful Madeline Tosh Vintage I won in your give-away last year. I am loving that yarn--Tosh is so lovely to work with and I can't wait to finish the cowl so I can wear it to work!
