Sundry

A wrap with the wearability of a shawl and a scarf.
 This is a knit that combines two colors with much interest featuring a Houndstooth Slipstitch and plenty of good old Garter Stitch.
 I really like this wrap and loved finishing it off with the Picot bind off.  I considered eliminating the Picot Edging, but sooooo pleased I revisited that thought.  The edging is a sweet and lovely addition and proof again we should all think outside the box!
 The Skinny:
Pattern:   Sundry by Jennifer Dassau
Fiber:  String Theory Hand Dyed Yarn
Selku
Colors:  Alexandrite (1 skein)
Pewter  (1 skein)
Needle Size:  # 6 US 
 This was my first experience with String Theory and was a most pleasing one.  This is a strong ever sooo soft fiber with a wonderful sheen. Yeah...for tasting a new fiber!
Until next time, enjoy your Sunday and be open to the new experiences and ideas life brings you!
