This giraffe bib consumed 42 g of Bernat CottonTots (color Sunshine) knit on Size 5 knitting needles. I knit the short row version of the pattern with icord ties.
After row 9 I added two full K1, P1 rows. (so Row 10 becomes Row 12, and the first stitch is knit rather than slipped.) I used row 12 from the other beginning, not the short row version. (row 10 in short row section didn't seem to line up with where I was starting on the row.) I really wish row 12 were just included in the chart, but it wasn't such a big deal to count the stitches. To see the chart you need to go to the PDF.
The bib required minimal blocking, like its monkey cousin. The unblocked bib is shown below:

Caroline, how can I do any giraffe project without thinking of you? I miss you!
I miss you too! This is so excellent! I hope... it's for me? I fed a giraffe! :)
ReplyDeleteI love you, Sweet Caroline :)
DeleteHaha, this definitely cracked me up. Um, Caroline, I'm pretty sure it's a bib for a baby, and we don't have any such plans soon. Right?
ReplyDeleteSam, she already claimed a pair of baby socks, too. (Or at least asked me not to lose the pattern.) :)

'Keep calm and carry yarn,' says a parody of a (now overused) meme. It also has a relatable truth, as do all excellent memes. The rhythmic, repetitive motions of moving the yarn and needles, as well as the attention required to do it correctly, help to silence the chatter in your mind. You'll feel better the more you do it. Knitting frequency has a substantial relationship with feeling calm, according to worldwide studies that found a link between knitting and brain power. Visit our game list and see more here.
