Do you alter knitting patterns to accommodate for the lack of yardage?
Oh that looks so soft and cozy! Love that shade of purple - so rich. I have made socks shorter than I would like just because I thought I would run out of yarn.
ReplyDeleteNice job Nancy. I like a smaller cowl for warmth. The longer ones look pretty as an accessory, but I need the warmth up over my neck in real winter. Lovely color . You are doing so well with projects and your rehab
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. You are putting me to shame my friend. I haven't had a finish, (other than mittens), that I've been happy with for awhile. I have so much to do and not enough time to do it.

Hello
ReplyDeleteI too finally took up the needles and knitted. You would be so proud of me! I have knitted a cowl and two pairs of wrist warmers. Haven't got to the socks yet. I have the wool, I have the needles, I have the Craftsy toe up sock knitting class. All I need to do is get knitting!
I've been known to alter.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful shade of purple and the pattern sets it off in just the right way.
Great job with altering the pattern; I love the color!
