I needed to do a mindless knit....
I grabbed the first yarn I came across in my odds and ends bag ( larger sized scraps and yarn without any plans ) ......when that ran out I grabbed more...... same with needles, used the ones that happened to be in the bag......
no counting, no gauge, no anything, just knitting.......
I put a marker in the center stitch to make things nice and easy....
did 2 increases in each row, stuck to the ends and middle
I stayed with a simple yo
no cares at all
it was great
I used worsted weight yarn as well as some fun fur and other novelty yarns
the needles were a size 11 US
cast on 5 stitches
1) k1, yo, knit to the last stitch, yo, k1
2 ) knit until the center stitch yo, knit center stitch, yo, knit to end
I kept knitting until I liked the size
bind off and weave in ends
I will admit to putting in a bit of thought but not much lol...... I knew I would be using at lot of different yarns so to keep things even ( sort of ) I added the novelty yarns on the "wrong" side as well as the variegated yarn....
by even I mean, not all of the ends of the added in yarns were on the same side, there for the thickness that weaving the ends adds was on both edges
