New pond!
This new pond is still under construction. Check back soon to see patterns by little ole moi!
Materials: Use your favorite set of needles and one ball of any solid color cotton yarn. I used size 7 (4.5 mm) knitting needles. My finished cloth measured 9" x 8.5". The border is the first six rows plus the first & last four stitches of each row. If you would like to substitute another pattern for the border, remember to make the appropriate changes. Abbreviations: K=Knit, P=Purl. Cast on 43 stitches.

365 Knitting Stitches a Year Perpetual Calendar
by Ed Martingale
Great perpetual calendar for dishclothaholics!
Multiple of 8+3, plus border stitches
Knit 5-6 rows for bottom border.
Row 1 (RS) - Knit
Row 2 – K4, K4, P3, * K5, P3,* K4, K4
Row 3 – K4, P4, K3, * P5, K3,* P4, K4
Row 4 – repeat row 2
Row 5 - Knit
Row 6 – K4, P3, * K5, P3,* K4
Row 7 – K4, K3, * P5, K3,* K4
Row 8 – repeat row 6
Repeat rows 1-8 until cloth is about square, 4-5 more times.
Knit 5-6 rows and cast off on WS.
Crabs (if you watch The Deadliest Catch, the one with the jacket is "Greenhorn Jake")
pig butts
and --- camo turk (in camoflage to hide from hunters, LOL)!
For the baby butt, I just crocheted fewer rounds and made the tail and legs shorter.
I used the basic pig butt pattern for the crab - slightly fewer rounds so it would be flatter than the pig. I added the crab legs in round 6 (where you crochet in the back loop).
This was my first attempt to make my own pattern (after I felt I had mastered Grandma's Favorite).
The pattern stitch came from page 27 of the Dell Purse Book Pattern Stitches published in 1972. The cover price was all of $.25!
Both the right and the wrong side of this pattern create interesting looks and it works up nice in variegated yarn.
The pattern is worked on an odd number of stitches and 4 rows. The borders are 4 stitches on each side and 6 rows top and bottom. The borders are all knit in this pattern.
Cast on 43 stitches.
Rows 1-6: knit across.
Row 7: knit across.
Row 8: knit 4, *k1, slip1 repeat from * across to last 5 stitches, knit 5.
Row 9: knit across.
Row 10: knit 4, *slip 1, k 1 repeat from * across to last 3 stitches, knit 3.
Repeat rows 7-10 until cloth is almost square, about 60 rows.
Knit 6 rows, casting off on a wrong side row.
I used size 7 or 8 needles, with a finished size of 8x8" in the cloth pictured.
Here's the "other" right side of the cloth - I couldn't get both pictures to play nice in a single post.
I also see that my font color keeps changing . . .
