Well I finally finished the green bag from First Knits.<\/a> It is pictured here with some of the green yarns I bought from the Mobair stall at Blenheim, and giant buttons I got from the Craft Fair in Brighton that I drove to for viewing the very fabulous knitted garden<\/a> for myself.<\/p>\n

This pattern was a good introduction to cabling, blocking and mattress stitch.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I was pleased with the mattress stitch, though I can’t help thinking the whole pattern would have been better constructed in the round… I turned the ribbing at the top inside-out too early on in my making up, and now the seam shows through. Also, exhibiting my father’s penchant for bomb-proof construction I found I had woven in the ends far too thoroughly to retrieve the yarn and correct this mistake… hence the handle is stitched to the seam right to the top and the giant buttons are then sewn over the offending seam-section. I hope this is the kind of mistake that only I will perfectionistically notice and that others will see only the joyous fact that for once my stitches don’t look as though they were completed by a baboon with poor eye\/hand coordination.<\/p>\n

The green-ness of my knitting grows and I shall cast on the riverstole in green mobair and the kiri in goldiehair directly.<\/p>\n
