Well here it is all finished. It's a bookmark. It's made from embroidery floss on 0000 needles. I did it with double knitting because I didn't want to fiddle with double pointed needles on something this small. Instead, half of the stitches are slipped one way, turn it over and stitch the slipped stitches, and slip the stitched ones, the other way. Same thing but only 2 needles.
Just for the record, it's 12 stitches per inch.
I also made a snitch washcloth on our trip, finished it while we were there, and now I can't find it. I think we're completely unpacked too, so I'm really baffled as to where it went. Maybe a house elf has decided to pick it up...
We're just waiting for the book to come out now. Just under 12 hours...
What beautiful work! The stag pouch is just a knockout!
ReplyDeleteSo clean insides!great work!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! I've been off my desktop for so long (office is a wreck) and using my hubby's laptop - without my bookmarks - that I just now saw this. Impressive! And I have to applaud you for the tenacity to knit on 0000 needles - even for a bookmark! What are your thoughts after the whole experience?
ReplyDeleteBy the way - what exactly is a Pygmy Puff?
Hope the Snitch washcloth turned up!
