On My Needles ~ Still...

My Guernsey Wrap is still on my needles,
and I am so in love with it.

There are three charts to the pattern, 
A, B and C, some have to be completed two or three times.
I have finally made my way to chart C.
Three skeins of yarn are needed to finish the wrap, 
I just opened number three.
This project has been sheer joy to work on,
I adore the yarn choice and the color,
and the "bind-off" is in sight!
It is currently 49 inches long and looks like this...



It won't be long now!!

Oh, you are SO SWEET to care about a Guernsey Cow enough to make it a wrap! Does it belong to a friend, or is it part of a herd?

If a superhero could knit...imagine the gidgets and such she'd/he'd create. (I watched a lot of Marvel's this weekend)

I love that wrap, it is wonderful. My daughter told me this weekend, that my grand daughter who is six, is knitting up a storm. I asked her what H. what she was making and she said, " a blanket for a stuffed animal." I am so excited she is learning at this age. My grandson who is eight, is learning too. He says if H. can do it so can he. :) I guess I will be sending skeins of wool soon. Darn, I have to buy wool. ( Now I have a good excuse.) Have a lovely Tuesday Debbie.

Debbie said...

thanks karen, this is not as difficult as it looks and all the stitches are far from perfect. but that's what makes it unique, non-cookie cutter and special. this is my favorite project so far....no one is getting it, it is my gift to myself!!!!!
