[Nfb-krafters-korner] mobius? was: Artful Yarns Circus

[River Woman]

There are several great books on the market that use the Mobius in all the 
patterns in the book. You can do purses, cowls, shawls, _dog or cat beds, 
bowls, sculptures...._A Second Treasury of Magical Knitting_ by Cat Bordhi' 
is a book that I have. There are some very beautiful projects in this book. 
I got it out since someone mentioned doing a mobius - and that is what I am 
gonna do!

I also found a great cowl project - in a magazine that I have.  It is 
featured on the cover of Creative Knitting Magazine, January 2006 issue. I 
kept this mag because of the wonderful knitted coat on the cover, but whe I 
picked it up I noticed that there was a cowl also on the cover, with that 
coat. OH, MY, I got my COWL pattern that I will use with the Artfulyarn 
"Circus" yarns. They are on sale right now at a great price, so I am gonna 
buy some more!
Happy knitting to everyone for 2011. Can't wait to see what we'll all be 
doing NEXT year!
