Hip to Be Square
So I'm on a bit of a kick, here. And I made an entire square in three hours! And now I have Alpaca lint all over my shirt (and probably sofa, too), but I'm happy because I got to spend a few hours playing with the lovely alpaca.
It's a simple garter stitch square -- sort of... I started with 60 stitches, and did a double decrease on the center of every other row to end up with a neat seam-y sort of line up the center. Fun fun, don't you think? I really have to say, again, that I'm loving this alpaca yarn. I really do want to make a sweater in it.
And that's all for tonight, folks. Time to sleep. Off tomorrow. Planning to do an elephantine armhole, but we'll see. Maybe I should try to get some PPD done.
That's some good lookin alpaca. What kind of sweater?
