November 2007-Last touch of Fall




Here it is November and soon the Holidays will be on us with full force! Here is a wonderful flap that incorporates two stiches that I have been wanting to try for a while. One is a leaf edging which I found very logical after the first two repeats and so was able to slip into a semi-automatic knitting trance! I will do three leaves across the botom next time! The center panel is a simple basket weave stitch. I picked up those stitches inside the bottom leaf section and then knitted up to the top and finished the connecting part of the flap...great fun and a super flap.
