Today I'm working on a rug for my bathroom. The yarn is Lion Brand Cotton-Ease which I hand-dyed.
I was a little concerned about the dyeing because the fiber content is 50% cotton, 50% acrylic, and acrylic is infamous about rejecting dye. It seems to have worked out fairly well. The colors are a little more intense in real life. I was attempting to create a yarn with Noro-like color changes and I succeeded for the most part. The colors don't gradually change though...Eh, next time.
The pattern I'm making up based on a washcloth I knit. It's a little more than half done. I've been averaging a wedge a day, what with school being out now. At this rate I should be done this week and my obsession can cease.
I'm inspired. Definitely want to make an afghan now. I'll have to alter the pattern to make hexagons though.
