this was a fun little knit. Quick and cute!


pattern: Eleventh bow tie (rav link)
yarn: leftover Knipticks Stroll
needles: US 1.5 (2.5mm)

I knit the first half as written, but then the second half I just made a big rectangle ti give the bow tie a bit more body, since the ones I saw that knit both in the pattern looked a bit too thin/floppy about the middle.

Bill Loves it! It took him about a hour of back and forth between computer with instructions and bathroom mirror to get it tied properly, but he's already planning a Halloween costume around it.
