Snowflake - revisited
Snowflake Western Region Oddball Baby Blanket started December 2013 |
My second section was knit with Caron Simply Soft (white), using a seed stitch and stockinette block pattern. I used a new skein of yarn and discovered that the yarn coming from the center of the skein had grease and guck on the strands. Cheryl gave me the blanket when she finished her section, so I could use some laundry pre-soak on those sections. I washed the blanket, and thankfully, all the stains came out.
Cheryl knit the last section, shown at the bottom of this photo, and did the bind off. She will start a new blanket on the empty needles.

Nothing like teamwork to create another pretty blanket.
ReplyDeleteMakes you wonder how the gunk gets wound into the middle and avoids notice. Yuck! But the blanket turned out very pretty.
ReplyDeleteThis color is great for showing off the stitches. Glad the stains came out.
