Purple teal orange brown wild thang

This is several different yarns cut into random lenghts, all a bulky weight, knit with a size 11 cable needle.  Often I will add squins, eyelash yarns or other novelty yarns, but I think this has plenty of "interest" already.

Lots of alpaca and silk

A bit on the bulky side, this ribbed scarf will be very warm and soft. I've used two yarns switching each two rows. I'm using an old pair of plastic needles that were my mother's.

Basketweave variation in apricot

This is all the same piece in spite of the way it looks in different light, etc.
It's quite entertaining to keep producing variations of this stitch while making face cloths with cotton.  I've taken to using small needles to make a nice firm fabric - I'm always happier with something more firm than floppy when the cloth is wet.
