I cast on for a Booga Bag last night with my Rasberry Lambs Pride Worsted. These 6.5mm needles are the biggest I have ever used and they’re FUN. I finished the base last night, picked up stitches all the way round the base this afternoon (yay new skill!) and started knitting in the round for the first time ever (yay another new skill!). I think this project is going to be a quick knit. Well it would have been, had I not decided it needed a contrast colour. I called ThreadBear this morning and asked them to help me choose a suitable contrast. They choose Khaki, I could hear three of them all agreeing they liked it on the other end of the phone, I really hope I do too…. From what I could see online I had been thinking Limeaid or Victorian Pink but they told me the Limeaid was pretty lurid, which is what I was worried about. It is always so hard to tell on my laptop screen but we never really discussed the pink properly, I hope they didn’t think I was only interested in green and choose the best of a bad lot…Whatever the case it is done now and they are sending two skeins so I can make a second bag with Khaki as the main colour and for good measure I ordered a skein of Cascade 220 to make Sophie too.
