Casting On and On and On

I debated whether or not I wanted to write this post since there isn't much to see. Since I'm trying to get back into regular blogging and I've committed to showing the truths of creating and not just the end result I give you my moebius scarf. When I fell in love with the pattern I thought I was making a mobius scarf where the piece is knit flat and then twisted at the end. Turns out it's knit with the thing twisted from the cast on. All I can say is thank goodness for YouTube. I think I watched Cat Bordhi's tutorial a dozen times and ripped it out three times before everything made sense. I'm still knitting the first round so I'm not completely out of the frogging stage, but it's starting to show some hope.

  1. You tube became my new best friend when I was trying to learn to spin. I love the yarn that you are using with its mixture of colours.

  2. Isn't it always the case that when you're knitting in the round, you make a moebius when you don't want to by accident, and then when you need to do it for real, you have to watch a video. Thank goodness for Youtube! Nice start!
