Had I not been distracted I probably would have the second llama finished already. I am knitting a crochet pattern. I checked the gauge and am hoping now that I made a note of that in Ravelry so I can be sure what my numbers are. I do have the recollection that I need 2 more knit rows to equal the same height of crochet rows.
My progress so far is a barely started body, three feet and a leg that could be in the half done range. Had a terrible time getting a decent photo of the three feet. I was working each on double points until I got to 42 sts in the round and started knitting the first 2 together on a set of two circulars. Realizing I was running low on the dark brown for feet I clipped on strand and started the third foot, knit until I ran out of color and then switched to white. Ultimately all where switched to white and when the progress on the third foot had caught up to the first two I put it on the circulars as well.
I reviewed as many llama photos as I could, paying particular attention to the feet, and concluded that often their feet do not all match. So my second llama will look like it's wearing spats that are uneven. I don't even know what I will do for the third llama yet, but I have llama yarn for it, possibly even a fourth.
It's prettier in person ;o) |
Yeah. Welcome back! Sorry OMGPop is giving you headaches. I've been playing letterblox and haven't been having any problems. Need to talk to you sometime about Rescued Racers festival - coming up in June.
