Granite

Saturday, May 24th, 2008

Liberty’s in London finally broke me down… and I bought a ton of Rowan Bamboo Tape yarn to knit Erika Knight’s design, “Granite” from one of the newest Rowan mags.

Starting the back piece of Granite

I had brought the Central Park Hoodie to work on, but after finishing the sleeves, I was at a bit of a loss… my hands craved plain o’ mindless knitting. Knitting for the bus, knitting for the tube, knitting for the afternoon coffee at the cafe, knitting for the plane. So, here’s a whole lotta stockinette to knit up in fettucine-like bamboo yarn.
