more on the tights
EZ loved stockinette and garter stitch. Ixnay on the garter stitch, but stockinette - oh yes, just love whizzing around on my Addi ckns in stockinette. So, here's one leg.
Am working up the thigh now. Finished the 1 hank of yarn I had, am awaiting more to come. EZ uses a band of elastic to connect the 2 ankle points under the foot, but I hate the pulling on my flat feet, where there is little to no arch, so I think I'll just do a band of ribbing in a thinner yarn.
I'd also have a hat to show, if I didn't spend much of Saturday knitting, then ripping it out 3x! Am making better progress now and should have it done tomorrow to show.
