Wrap Up Winter! It is now Spring 2018 Part 2

Wrap Up Winter! It is now Spring 2018 Part 2

Welcome to Part 2 - The comparison

Merino Black
















This time I am knitting the Hat, Gloves and Scarf set in King Cole Merino Blend DK Superwash Shade 48 Black on the same 4mm needles.

Aran Beret 6 Inches













When measuring the Aran I forgot to do the height as well as the width. It is 6 inches.

Black Beret













I need to measure this but the tape has gone walkies.

Scarf Width
















The Scarf width is exactly the same at 3 Inches wide.

Scarf Length






The length is roughly 18 Inches long. I cannot be anymore exact due to the kinks in the tape measure. By my reckoning it is half to one inch shorter. I believe that this is due to my tension rather than anything else.

Brooches









I made these Brooches at the same time. Somehow or other when knitting the Black one I made a huge mistake. On the last increase row I entirely forgot to put the yarn forward so I was about 30 stitches short

I’m cutting this blog short due to illness I will conclude next week.
