Ripley




Pattern: Ripley by Ysolda Teague
Yarn: Lion Brand Kool Wool
Needle: US9
Notes: I used a yarn that was larger than called for in the pattern. I'm usually a loose knitter so I went down a needle size. I ended up making the largest size and it's a small adult size. Is that confusing enough?
This is a fast, simple pattern with a few tricks up its sleeve. A great stash buster for single skeins lying around. I hate this yarn. It's splitty and unyielding. i joyfully threw my leftovers in the trash.
Also note that I still suck at taking pictures of myself. And I really like green.
