Thick & Thin

Juxtoposition of different textures and materials has always fascinated me. I always wondered if there was maybe a way to knit something using two seamlessly joined thicknesses of yarn.

This new pattern set explores the possibilities of using two very different gauges to make one piece.




The effect is subtle, but visible enough to be interesting.

 


The pattern includes a scarf and a hat


The hat is sized for a teen-adult (18-20") or an adult large (21-23").


The scarf is nice, it is 50" long and uses a full skein of lanaloft worsted and a half skein of lamb's pride burly spun.

If you like the pattern you can buy it via ravelry.

  3. Those look really nice :)
    You should try and sell them on etsy. I sell there, nice community, and you get a ton of exposure.

    Anyway, nice hats and scarfs :)
