    About

    I just love James C Brett Baby Marble DK. I hadn't used this shade before. When the pattern of the yarn started to show I just loved it. I called this blanket Sunset Marble as the yarn reminded me of a sunset.

      I like using it for kiddies jumpers, as it comes out different every time. I'm doing one just now for the wee boy next door and it's a mix of greens,blues and lilacs. The jumper for his little brother was in shades of blues, which I think is my favourite. It's a nice wool to knit with too.

        Sounds nice. Hope you post it when complete. I'm on a bit of trying different colour combinations with Stylecraft Special DK. I've got the full range in yarn pegs. I'm trying to be more confident in the combos I make, something different. I no longer have 5 ball combos around the house much to my husbands delight :)

        That's one of the reasons I love the yarn. No two blankets are the same. It's very easy to match up as you finish each ball. There is very little wastage when doing this. I also was worried when I first started using it. Now I think I do it in my sleep.
        I've recently acquired some yarn pegs and really enjoying making combinations. My Blue Storm blanket is one.

      3. Miss treble closet to hook. *3 treble in next treble. Miss 1 treble. 1 treble in next treble. Miss 1 treble*. Repeat from * to * end. 1 treble in turning chain, 3 chain turn.

        Hi Cathi. If it doesn't make sense let me know. I'm more than happy to send more pics if needed. I love the Marble yarn. King Cole Melody is another favourite.
