Friday Night Mystery Knit ~ # 3

Friday Night Mystery Knit       #3

 

Requirements:

2 DK yarns in complementary colours or tones – one self-coloured & one short colour change (or self-patterning)

4mm needles (or 4.5mm if you are a tight knitter)

 

 

Top Tips:

·        It does not matter which yarn you start with

 

·        Do NOT cut off the yarn after using it – just carry it up the side of the knitting
 

·        There are 2 sizes – why not make one of each!

 

 

 

PLEASE DO NOT SHARE ANY PHOTOS OF YOUR FINISHED ITEM

until given permission to do so.

 This will allow the mystery to continue for others who may join in late depending where in the world they are based.

Please do not spoil the surprise!
