With the first ball and a quarter of Cento, I knit myself for me...

and this is what I have left (14.5 yards - I measured it). I think I should burn it before it starts multiplying again! Unless...anyone know what I could do with 14 yards of Cento???

My photographer's assistant says, "Are we done with this yet? I want lunch and a bellyrub!"

More later...recovering from Cento overload (I really do love this yarn, but I swear it breeds in knitting bag!)...
But it breed in such a nice way. I love the scarf.
ReplyDeleteOkay --- 14 yds. Tassels?
Holy moly- you've been busy! I love your pup- what a sweet little face! And lunch and a bellyrub?! Sounds like a great day! ;)
ReplyDeleteI love how resourceful you are! With the 14 yards left, make an i-cord wrist strap for your camera condom :-)
ReplyDeleteI found you, Laurie! Loved the pic of you in kitchen adorned in that cowlneck yummy thing. I'll be back!

Here's an excellent use for leftover bits of yarn: http://anotherlongyarn.zinalee.net/?p=1638 -- then make your fabric into a bag or a pillow or whatever takes your fancy!
