Knitlab/ Laboratory gets new speciamen!

Knit lab-Laboratory gets Carnival karolinski

Yet another experiment, a complete jumble of technique style and yarn. If the litmus paper was dipped this specimen would be high on the alkali.;-)

Yarnbomb (small scale)

Yarnbombing on a small scale and it is my 1st attempt at this newly named knit sport.
The handle of my Broken Blankie Blanket Basket seemed a good choice to practice on.

Carnival Karolinski

The back of the skirt the chartreuse is three layers of ruffles. (up close).

Side on view in my window, I like my little star lights, they set of the skirt. Ready for any show set or even the stage performance!

Complicated? completed...... the front is a medley of clashing colour/ that make the eye believe that they do all really blend.

When really they do not Black pink blue? It's just something that's particularly cool with a good knit and crochet project, it's really hard to make any thing that will not blend together, once those stitches entwine.
Magic
I think that I need to increase its title as I think that it would probably be an excellent if a little cold outfit for the Notting Hill Carnival.

This week I have been mostley crocheting!

The skirt I am now knitting a few round in blue, On the circular needles these are not my favourite thing the use (find them tricky) But they work really well when you are attaching to crocheted stitches.
The top of the two piece I am currently sowing in all the ends and I have to add the five button holes that attach it to the skirt, using the chartreuse
(Sitting on top of the pink basket)
Brought from Stockholm knitting fair.

Currently knit thinking about.............
Yarnbombing (Example The Crochet Mexican Bus)

I need to yarnbomb something, but what?

Knit Cafe Sunday

My Cool Vogue Buttons that where a Christmas gift
(Thanks Lisa)
Sit very nicely on my skirt waist band, so that it can be joined actually onto the top.
If you like, or not if you prefer loose!

Yet more ruffles the aim was three rows so not the bottom cover is complete. I finished the last row at knit lab Sunday.

I just need to add some free-form panels to make the skirt a wearable in public length;-)
