My version

Well, here is my version of the west elm rug.

I am very pleased with how it turned out! I have a second one on the needles but I just don’t feel like armwrestling with the huge needles right now.
Details: Peaches & Creme Double Worsted weight cotton yarn in Olive.
Size 19 needles
Right off the bat I can’t tell you how many I cast on, I will have to go count ;o)
But I can tell you that I knit for 36″, folded it in half and sewed it shut. It’s thick and cushy to step out onto after a nice hot shower. And, surprisingly enough, it does not slip. I am planning to put nonslip rug stuff under there but so far there hasn’t been a need.
I chose to fold it in half so that it would be reversible.
I have also been making Christmas gifts; most of which are going to family members that don’t read here. So I think I can safely show them ;o)

Plus a few more items thrown in for good measure. I will put up details on each project after I complete them all.
I have been trying to keep things up to date on Ravelry, so if you feel lost without my posting (who wouldn’t, right?) please head on over & catch up with me there. I will do my best to get back to blogging regularly. Promise!
