Skillfully Wrought: My Sock Yarn Blanket

Skillfully Wrought

Psalm 139:15 says, "My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth."(NKJV) The phrase "skillfully wrought" means "(1)to variegate, mix colours, (b)to be skilfully wrought or woven". It amazes and humbles me to know that God used such creativity to fashion each us! Not only that, but because we were created in His image we have been given that same desire and ability to be creative! What a gift!

My Sock Yarn Blanket

Pattern

Sock Yarn Blanket by Shelly Kang

Needles

US 2 - 2.75 mm

Yarn

Bits and bobs of leftover sock yarns

Started - March 10, 2015

Notes: I started with 31 stitches. My squares are 2.75 inches/7.5 cm. If I were to start over again I’d probably go with 35 stitches to get more like a 3 inch square.

All rows - Slip first stitch as if to purl, Knit the last stitch through the back loop

RS rows - Centered double decrease (slip two at the same time as if to knit, knit one, pass slipped stitches over)

WS rows - Purl the center stitch (the CDD)

About Me

Name: Leah

Location: Hammond, New York, United States

My husband, Scott, and I have been married for 12 years. We have five precious children so far, 3 sons and 2 daughters here on earth! We are praying for many more baby blessings! My husband works with his parents on our organic dairy farm. We also raise many other farm animals and grow most of our own food. I began teaching myself to knit in August of 2007. I started with dishcloths and quickly moved on to more challenging projects. I hope to learn how to spin very soon! In mid-November of 2010 I opened an Etsy shop to sell knitting and fiber arts supplies. I'm excited to see what the future holds!
