mobius wrap

[crochetobsession]

I finally finished this. It's just one long rectangle joined with a half-twist in the back. (makes a mobius strip--a two sided piece that becomes one sided). All back loop sc. The yarn is Knit Picks Elegance (70% baby alpaca/30% silk) in Ash held together with J.&P. Coats silver metallic thread, size #10.

Very nice. Thank you for sharing the picture.

Hmm after I finish up some baby gifts, an afghan for hubby and a couple of shrugs for my daughters think I will try one of these.

Nice work, looks very elegant...

I like the bobbles too

[Qmare]

Turned out very nice. I've wanted to make one of those for a long time!

[thread_zealot]

Love it, am thinking of doing one for myself too.

 

Great Job.

Fantastic!

and if it wears on one side you can always turn it inside out! hehe

Mobius strips have always fascinated me. Thanks for posting it!

I love, love, love this. I've been wanting to make one. I keep gettin distracted with other projects. I'll have to stop and do it now. Thanks for showing yours!

[Croshay]

That is too cute. My daughter loves it.

 

Would you mind telling me how you joined it at the end? I can't even tell where it's joined. You did a beautiful job!

[xmaystarx]

Thanks to you all! I just slip-stitched it up, but I went back over the seam with another line of slip stitch and matched it on the other side of the bobble row. So one of the raised rows is the seam, and the other is a match to it. (I didn't end up doing 3 rows of bobbles, just the one in the middle).

 

Hope that kinda makes sense.

I'm knitting one at the moment. Would love to do one in crochet. Was this your own design?

[jaclim]

[Roli]

That is really pretty and you picked the right yarns for it. It can go dressy or casual. Like the others here, I've been eyeing up the pattern and have been planning to make it myself. You did a wonderful job.

[ILove2Crochet]

Thanks for sharing the pic. I'd love to make something like this when I finish all of my other shawls!

[mwedzi]

This is very pretty. I'd love to make something like this, and it sounds like it would work up quickly, too. How does it wear? I mean, do you have any difficulties keeping it from slipping off or anything like that? thanks.

[Rockinmax]

That's beautiful! You did a great job on it and I love the color. Thanks for sharing.
