Today I have managed to go both backwards and forwards. On my Ribbed Baby Blanket I decided that it was taking to long and was coming out uneven, so I had to unravel it, I then put it on my knitting loom, which would have picked up the pace but it was way too loose for what I wanted, so I undid it again. Now it is in a simple double crochet with 2 strands of the yarn at the same time so I could get the right pull to it but get a better thickness I am using Baby Bee sweet delight prints: gageboy's yarn and a size H/8-5.00mm hook. I a playing around with edging it once I've finished I wanted to put a fringe on it put as this will be for a baby maybe that isn't the best idea. I also plan to embroider the babys name and maybe a small message on there before I give it to the lil sis for delivering, not before of course putting a picture up here.
In other news, once I finish this and the Lap throw for my In-laws I am going to play with a couple new-to-me techniques on some scarves and a new-to-me concept of hats, I have only worked in the round once and it didn't come that naturally but I'm keeping my fingers crossed, plus as I proved with this blanket I am willing to keep taking it apart until I think its right!
