Made from yarn harvested from an Eddie Bauer wool/alpaca sweater I got at Sal’s for $2.00! A very soft, smooth feeling yarn. Lovely to knit!
I’d call it light worsted weight. It’s relaxed, not very crinkled from unraveling.
Cast on 40 sts with a #7 needle.
Joined in-the-round and knit 4 1/2” 2x2 rib with #5s dpns (actually 3 #5s and 1 #6 - I think the loveseat has eaten several of my dpns!)
Switched to knitting back-and-forth to make a thumb opening 2” tall. (still 2x2 rib)
Back to in-the-round for another 1 3/4”.
Total length 8 1/4”.
See more photos here - It seems DH likes them - alot!! lol.
