The Knitting & Crochet Blog Week is over, and as much as I loved posting every day, I just can't keep it up. So here I am returning to my 2-4 posts per week.
I don't mean it's corny in the meaning of tacky or ridiculous, I mean it's made out of corn! The whole shawl is knit with 100% maize yarn, the Finnish TeeTee Poppari.
The pattern is also Finnish, the Minttumaari shawl from Ullaneule.net. The shawl is knit on 6mm needles, and it used up a bit over 150 grams of yarn.
Remember the banana silk yarn I received as gift a while back? I finally cast it on, ancdvery quickly cast it off too, as it knits up really quick!
I made the Juicy banana silk scarf (Ravelry link) and even though it calls for two hanks of the yarn, I managed very well with just one, I just left the tassels off and made the scarf a bit shorter - I reckon it measures two meters. I made it with 8mm needles.
