Scarves & Cases

[catchat105.livejournal.com]

Yay my first post!

I learned how to knit from my grandmother when I was a child, and more recently taught myself after watching my ex-roommate from last year.  Here are the last three projects I've completed:


This is a case I knit for my Nintendo DS.  I got the idea from a Klutz Knitting book pattern for sunglasses, which I found fit my DS, but a little too loosely.  I also sewed a fabric lining into the case and made it drawstring so the DS wouldn't slide out too easily.


Two scarves I knitted and completed.  The bottom one was the first scarf I've ever made (and completed), and turned out too plain, but with the yarn there were certain limitations.
The top scarf I recently finished.  It's knit from bamboo fiber yarn, and I got the pattern from a knitting pattern book.  The yarn consists of different dye lots, so the two ends take on a very subtle fade effect.
