I worked up some sock yarn on some #1s and #3s. I need a gauge of 8st/inch. On the #3s I got 7 stitches and on the #1s I got 9 stitches. Guess what size I don’t own. lol. I gotta tell you, knitting on #1s feels a little like knitting on long toothpicks. I thought it would be tedious to knit at such a small scale, but I am really liking it. My hands don’t hurt as much the next day which is a big bonus too.
Does anybody know of a lace pattern for sunflowers that would fit on a hat for Zora? She needs some summer hats and one of her outfits would be great with sunflower pattern and the yarn I have is a yellow cotton that will probably be worked up on #3s. The limited stitch libraries I have don’t have anything that is good for what I am wanting. Any ideas?
I wish I could sew. I used to crochet a thousand years ago!
