oo, that's a lovely yarn color!
So pretty!!
I love this leaf pattern!! I made my kiddo's receiving blanket in that pattern and it was one of my absolute favorite knits.
Same here! It's a lovely pattern and the seed stitch along the edge looks great with it.
Thatβs so pretty π
I've done this pattern before! It was a fun knit.
Start at the beginning of summer to be done in time for winter!
It's beautiful, looks like it will be wonderfully cozy.
What size needles are you using for this? The yarn you linked says 4mm but the pattern calls for 6.5mm which makes me think the end result would be different. I'm fairly experienced in knitting but yarn thickness and all still throws me for a loop and I can't find yarn with a recommendation of 6mm needles. Beautiful work anyways!
Hey! I'm using 5mm needles so it's got a nice drape to it. I just had this yarn lying around so wanted to use it for something.
I knew that it would come out smaller than the pattern so I threw some more repeats in the width and it's going to be a bit smaller than a double bed in the end.
Thanks for the compliments!
Gosh that's some extra work there haha. But thank you for the response! Maybe I'll brave up to try this pattern it looks so beautiful.
