One of the patterns in my magazine turned out like this......quite a pleasing effort, I thought!

I have also been knotting
I bought a Paracord magazine which had some "free" cord and buckles.........so this is what I have done with one bit.
It is the first time I have used a buckle....have been struggling with end loops and knots before.......I may have to re do it as I think the loop is in the wrong place at one end of the buckle.
This weeks projects.
The cardigan I am knitting for my grandaughter.
The circular needles are very handy for this one, as it is knit in one piece, so has a lot of stitches around the main body bit.

My new project.
Now I have started knitting a cardigan for my grandaughter.
The next picture is what the finished cardigan will be like, as I have already knitted this one for my other grandaughter.
This is the sweater which I have just finished knitting for my husband. It is a sort of "Designer" knit, as I did not have any proper pattern to follow. The basic pattern is 7 and 1 stitch which makes the down stripes. This was taken from an old 1950's knitting book...for a sleeveless pullover which was a 7 and 2 stitch. Therefore I had to make up the sleeves and shaping for them. It is not excellent, but my husband likes it.
