Notes

A basket full of leftovers

Most yarns are thin, I used 2-5 yarns held together according to theyr weights.
Es sind vorwiegend dünne Garne, ich habe 2-5 Fäden zusammen verstrickt.

Brioche and stockinette intarsia in the same piece!

Crazy idea: some small intarsia elements and the rest brioche?
I managed it:
For the stranded intarsia I use the small needle and two color strands, for the brioche (every second row every second stitch one below, alternating) I use both color strands held together and the bigger needle. So the stiches have about the same hight and the stockinette needs just the double number of stiches. That means all stiches kfb where it begins and all stiches k2tog where I come to brioche again.

Patent und Jaquard glatt rechts kombiniert

eine verrückte Idee: Patent und glatt rechts für Jaquardmuster in einer Runde kombinieren?
Ich habs geschafft:
Für die Jaquardflecken hab ich die dünnen Nadeln genommen und die Fäden aufgeteilt in einen Strang für den Hintergrund, einen für das Muster. Für das Halbpatent (versetzt) beide Stränge zusammen und die dicken Nadeln. So haben die Maschen etwa die gleiche Höhe und das glatt rechts braucht einfach die doppelte Anzahl Maschen. Also am Anfang so eines Fleckchens alle Maschen verdoppelt, am Ende für das Patent wieder immer 2 zusammengestrickt.

The sleeves are done. Oh I used very much of the dark colors. Will I have enough of them or will I have to overdye some light yarns? I will see.

Oh, it is time for the increases towards the bottom!

I almost ran out of purple and blue leftovers. The last 5cm I used less strands. Pew! I got it long enough!

After a soak and hang it up dripping wet, and it grew as I hoped. Only the sleeves grew as well and I had to ripe some rounds, before I can add the cluffs. Hope to do so today.
