My moebius cowl patterns Infinity Squared and Time Loop both feature the Applied I-Cord Bind Off. Since the moebius has only one edge, this bind off makes a particularly nice finish for the cowls. For a little extra flair, you can work the bind off in a contrast color. Here is how to work the applied i-cord bind off (shown using contrast yarn). I will be adding a video of the technique shortly but here is the pictorial Step-by-step.
Time L∞p Cowl is totally fun-to-knit; a bit addictive if truth be told. This completely reversible moëbius cowl/wrap features a contrast i-cord edging. Versatile and fun-to-wear; the style looks great on guys and gals. The pattern has plenty of room for customization and is a great stash busting project. It can be worn over the ears and the larger version makes a nice wrap for the shoulders.
For a variety of reasons, I do not like winter. This winter has seemed ridiculously long. But after waiting for at least 42 months, it is finally Spring here. So you will not hear me complaining about the pollen, or the return of the mosquitoes, or even the need to weed my flowerbeds and mow the yard.
This sock pattern, like the Lord of the Rings character for which it was named, is practical and simple. The stitch pattern is easy to memorize, but not boring, making it a great TV or travel knit. The design is compact so it can handle self-striping and many variegated yarns. The texture gives the sock a nice stretch to make it fit a broader range of people.
Over the past few years, I have discovered that creativity and depression do not play well together. This is particularly evident in my writing or at least how long it has been since I have posted. On the bright side, I am feeling much better now. So for 2015, I am focusing on new beginnings.
I am already working on improving my health. I am actually exercising now. I got a Fit Desk for my birthday so now I can use my computer and work out at the same time to make the boring parts of exercise more fun.
