Spirogyra

spirogyra yarn 'n neddles

I'm quite happy regarding my knitting.
As soon as I saw the Spirogyra pattern in the spring issue of the free online knitting magazine Knitty I knew, they have to be mine.

Inbetween grocery shopping yesterday I stopped in a local yarn store and found the perfect - because neutral - colored cotton yarn.
I most of the time t-shirts or blouses with half or two/third long sleeves. For the climate here - outside and inside me - it is quite convenient to be able to cover up in the cooler hours.

Yesterday evening I casted on for the swatch and was very satisfied with the look. Sorry, no picture, because I already frogged it. So know I have a small project on hand for the go - exactly what I need .

    Ich liebe sie sehr und bewundere die fleißigen Strickerinnen, die sich an dieses Muster wagen.

    In den 80er Jahren gab es eine Jazzband namens Spyrogyra, nicht wahr?
