Day 8:

Dye colour: Turmeric Bright Yellow. This exotic spice can produce bold happy yellows when used on textiles.       

Knitting Pattern: Lace Holes Diamond. The double yarn over can cause confusion! The double size hole will have two stitches made in to the top of it on the next row. To do this you make 1 purl then 1 knit stitch into the yo. This produces a neater hole than two knit stitches. Join today's yarn & follow the charted pattern for 18 rows.
