2026: projects using left over yarn

 2026 knitting projects

limited to using up left over yarns. Hands not as nimble as years before. and limited daylight does not help.

so a variety of iCords, mug squares and squares for walker handles. Pom poms. etc


squares for walker I use when I shower are vital. Those handlebars are slippery if wet or soap is involved.


I am sure I did not "discover this stitch but I use it as a design I came up with for variety, stretch and ribbing. Would make a great sweater but I cannot focus enough for a sweater project.


cast on 25 stitches on #8 circular needle.

slip first stitch, knit 2, purl one, knit 3, purl one to end. repeat that row.

next 2 rows slip one knit all to end

cast off using long cast off so it is a frilly edge.


favorite mauvy purple yarn and  varigated  purple and blues yarn. both woolish.
