Notes

Something different to work with is this chunky yarn from “Mia”. I have not worked with yarn and needles this size for some time so it was a change. Especially after all the lace pattern and Fingering weight yarns I have knit in the past view months.
It was a nice break from the fine yarns and patterns though.

Using size 10mm needle, cast on 90sts or more up to you how wide you like it to be.
The pattern:
beginning the 2st row right side: knit 1, purl1, knit1, purl1, knit1, purl1,
then knit to last 6 sts , purl 1, knit1, purl1, knit1, purl1, knit1 =end of row
On the revered row knit as sts appear.
Continue this way till all yarn is used up or as long as you need. You can drape it behind your back along the arms and see what length you like than just cast off and fold in half length wise and sew about 6 to 8inches together or as you like.

So Thanks to Wendys at “Unwind Yarn House” and her request to make something nice with this yarn, I was able to try out a different yarn that I probably would not have bought before…….but I have to say it was well worth trying. I could see using more of this yarn to make a nice cooler evening project. Works up fast.
Keeps you nice and snugly warm.

Project on display at Unwind Yarn House and yarn is available at the store too.
