Knitted teleport bracelet!

[vilakins]

Another hot day today! I had to go into town to meet my sister for lunch at a place she swore was wonderful, but where we ate very substandard pasta (she apologised and said it was really good for dinner which didn't really help). She was buying material for an outfit for a family wedding next month which I'm really pissed off about because it's on at the same time as the Wings Over Wairarapa air show where they'll have a Spitfire. A Spitfire! Newmarket was hot, crowded, and noisy and it's taken me over an hour to cool down.

I have however finally sewn my knitted teleport bracelet together, done using wolfma's pattern here.

It fits well, but doesn't appear to work. :-(


The pink crystal is slightly raised due to increasing and decreasing two stitches.


When I do another one (I have lots of yarn left over), I shall use a better method of knitting yarn in behind than I did for this one, and plain intarsia for the pink to make it stand up more.


On my hand, looking eerily gothic in the shade. :-P

It doesn't work? :( Alas! I love it though, it's so nifty and creative. :D

It might get me onto a knitted Liberator. ;-) Bit leaky in vacuum though.

Thanks! The kudos goes to wolfma for the pattern though.

Kudos to you both

Knited Liberator might be leaky in vacuum, but much cuddlier, I imagine. :)

I will however not be making one. The prongs would droop for a start. ;-)

And now I have 50 more user icons, I will have to make a knitting one.

Easy enough to reinforce though, with a coat hanger wire or bit of bamboo or something! XD

I have 50 more too! I've already uploaded several new ones and I still have a ton of slots!
