There are so many things that can be knitted, including ties for husbands, boyfriends and dads, who feel obliged to wear them. Watching them produce an artifical smile, keep calm and carry on going to work with their new handmade fashion accessory attached just makes my twisted day.And here's my latest creation, an 80s retro tie as featured in the June 2010 edition of Simply Knitting Magazine. Isn't it fabulous? I have used the recommended yarn, just a different shade:
Regia Design Line by Kaffe Fassett, shade 04350, 2.5mm needles
And now that I've knitted my first ever tie, I can continue creating more contemporary designs. Surely my husband will rejoice.
