The Rubicks cube on my dresser was no where near solved when the majority moved on to Tetris. People were rollerblading while I was still rollerskating. Don't even get me going on Pilates!
I did things when I was ready. Which explains why I just recently discovered Mobius. I love the twist. So, unexpected. Math is cool, when you have to knit it...
I did this with 3 balls of Sean Sheep Yarn in a thick & thin roving wool blend. Its such a rich, delicious, beautiful, red wine colour. I had to have it as soon as I touched it. Its not expensive (which is good) and it is a blend, but I enjoyed it, alot!
Even though my Morpheus Möbius was knit on US 17 needles, it didn't turn out very "lacy" like I thought it might. I cast on 36 stitches and did a simple K2P2 till all three ball were gone. My preferred pattern for scarves because of the rib-factor.
Why did I call it Morpheus? I couldn't believed all that I can do with this ever-looping scarf! After all was said and done, I think I "morphed" it into a shawl, scarf, neck cowl, wrapped hat, face warmer, side-ways sash... Well, you get the idea.
I debated (and sitll might) blocking it, to get it to hold its stretched out width of 17 inches more, but for now, I'm just going to enjoy its warmth.
