This is my new case for my KnitPicks Options needles. I have the big binder that comes with the needles, but I never really liked it. I found this case on Etsy and it’s perfect! You even get to pick out the fabric you’d like to have. zknitter is the Esty seller I purchased the case from. She was a perfect seller.

Here’s a FO. This is the Fana Hat from Charlene Schurch’s book, Hats On!. I’m still enjoying the stranded knitting! This was pretty easy and worked up fast. I made the medium size which is just a tad short for me, so would be good for an older child. I especially like the crown decreases. Knitted with Paton’s Classic Merino yarn, US#6 needles.

 

 

The weaving on the towels continues also. On a previous post I explained how to thread two heddles on the RH loom. Well, I *thought* I had it right but something must have been wrong because I could not get a clear shed. I checked and rechecked, but couldn’t get it to work. I removed the 2nd heddle and re-threaded the 1st to have two ends through each hole and slot. This kept the correct number of ends and 20 EPI as the pattern called for. I’m weaving 2 picks through each shed and this is a basketweave pattern. I think it looks just great. Whew! this weaving is making my head hurt!! I’ve just gotten started on the first towel, the warp is long enough for four towels.
