Linen Bombette


Well, I have finished another knitting project. I think it will be my last. I much prefer weaving or crochet. Despite following the instructions this "capelet" seems to be more of a "scarf". Okay, there were two big deviations from the instructions--I chose a different yarn than recommended (this is hemp--I liked its color)
and used needles (obviously size matters)
I already owned. A very oddly shaped scarf. I am pleased with the edge the beads were fun.
I do like beads.
But can you see how horrible this is??
My only hope is that it can be blocked
and then will hang properly
--but lordy there are some tangled
spots of doom.Can you tell I only go to knitting
for the conversation? and the coffee?
