T'Mahk Too - Comments on Baby, it's cold outside http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html Ta Da! Baby, it's cold outside. Sometimes, when you're out walking, wouldn't it be nice to have a warm place to tuck your hands? An additional layer when your gloves aren't keeping for fingertips warm enough? Okay, I didn't invent... en-gb Thu, 11 Jan 2007 15:45:59 -0500 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 21:51:34 -0500 http://www.movabletype.org/?v=4.1 kim@andfam.net 180 By Shambleyqueen your "kimodifications" are AWESOME!! =) love the colors too. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html#c27248 27248:577@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ your "kimodifications" are AWESOME!!

What a great way to NOT lose a mitten... or I guess if you do you lose both :o) but they're great! You'll be the next Grumperina... well maybe not, she's far too persnickety. Sorry I can't help you with the rolling edges... but they don't look bad, they look warm and cozy! http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html#c27249 27249:577@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ It's COOL!

I'm very impressed. http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html#c27254 27254:577@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ how cool is that!!! great great job.

]]> Fri, 12 Jan 2007 00:00:01 -0500 By Theresa Great idea, Kim! And since you were working from memory, not bad on the designing either. I know how to knit, but I prefer to crochet or sew, so I don't make many scarves, hats, etc. However, with our wonderfully COLD Mid-Ohio weather yesterday, I could have used the extra layer over my gloves while I was walking from the car into work!!! http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html#c27277 27277:577@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ Great idea, Kim!

Now you just have to incorporate a hat into that scarf and you'd have everything you'd need in one warm knitted thing! http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html#c27283 27283:577@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ Cool!

]]> Fri, 12 Jan 2007 07:39:05 -0500 By Barbie Awesome, Kim! As for the rolling, I read somewhere that the stockinette stitch will roll like that. So, did you knit one row, then purl the next? If so, that's why it rolls. I would go for a different stitch pattern to get out of the rolling. But that is just way too cool! http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html#c27299 27299:577@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ Awesome, Kim!

]]> Fri, 12 Jan 2007 09:23:52 -0500 By BusyHSmom You are soooo awesome! I can't believe you are already designing your own patterns!! It is very cute. Yep, stockinette stitch will curl. That is why patterns in stockinette often have a small border of garter stitch on each side. Depending on the width of the scarf you are knitting and the desired width of the border, just knit the first 2-5 stitches and the last 2-5 stitches of each row, no matter what stitch you are using in the middle of that row (Knit, purl, etc.). http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000577.html#c27456 27456:577@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ You are soooo awesome!
