#2 ornament!


we have up a free pattern for a lovely Holiday Ornament, designed by Radka Chamberlain (laceandcables).
Now Cathy Campbell (cathbellknits) has made a 2nd version has been knit, and i wanted you to see it. Note how she flipped background and contrast between the top and the bottom!

Knitting this could be a fun 'lesson' for colorwork stranding too!

Make Socks ...

Fun new sock pattern! Here at MakeSocks

I used Crystal Palace yarns Panda Superwash in #2013 dark knight and #2004 mint print for this design. colors for Panda Superwash

would love to see some other strongly contrasting colors!
I think the design would also work well with Panda Cotton & Panda Soy as well as Panda Silk w/ smaller needles.

Blessings,
