Squid case

2010-04-07T12:43:00.001-07:00

This is a super cool ipod or phone case :) its super easy too I was bored and it only took me like 1 hour about but that was like nonstop :)

Okay here we go.

I used like a sport or fingering yarn i think, either way its better a bit small so its snug

Cast on 24 stitches, depending on tension.

Knit stockinette stitch to desired length( the length of your phone or ipod thing.

row 1 : k2tog, k3 ( 18 sts)

row 2 : purl

row 3 : k2tog, k1 (12sts)

row 4 : p2tog, p2 across(9 sts)

Smelly scarf

2009-08-27T06:38:00.000-07:00

This is a sort of patternish thing. Ok its basically a laceish thing that i made a scarf but anyways.The yarn that i used is very smelly . Blahh. But is really pretty , so i will wash it when i'm done

For The yarn: 1 skein of bernat handicrafter cotton ultrasoft (4ply worsted weight)

The needles: i used size 7 dpns. ( I'm weird so i use dpns sometimes like regular needles, so basically size 7's)

Cast on 17 sts.

row 1 and all odd rows: Purl

row 2: k2, k2tog, yo, k1, yo, ssk, k3, k2tog, yo, k5

row 4: k1, k2tog, yo, k3, yo, ssk, k1, k2tog, yo, k6

row 6: k2tog, yo, k5, yo, slip 1, k2tog, psso, yo, k4, k2tog, yo, k1

row 8: k2, yo, ssk, k4, yo, ssk, k3, k2tog, yo, k2

row 12: k4, yo, ssk, k4, yo, k3tog, yo, k4

repeat these 12 rows for how ever long you want.

(ps. This scarf is skinny, and sometimes rolls up, a light ironing will do the trick)
