Progress, or So She Thought...


P.S-- the pale purple yarn likes to not look nice and even while knitted on larger needles. I'm not thaaaat bad at knitting.

This is going to take forever. It's a shame I didn't work on size 13's. The yarn likes to shrink back...

Oh well, I got a lot of novelty to use up...

"The Throw of Many Novelties"

~The Throw of Many Novelties~
A simple, fun and most deliciously soft throw for your chair or bed

*Progress pics:



^^^the length of size "small" ^^^


Materials:
-350-500 grams of different (but close width in strand) novelty skeins
-Size 11 or 13 (US) Circular needle -29'' or larger, if you can.
-Darning needle

DIRECTIONS:

1. Cast on 120 (small), 140 (medium), 160 (large), 200 (blanket long) stitches
2. Pick out the order that you want the stripes to be
3. Knit 50-100 grams per stripe (as seen in about 50 grams stripes= a little over an inch
4. Knit until you are satisfied with the height of the "throw."
5. Add fringes with left over yarn to spice it up!
