Baktus Shawl

I finished my second Baktus Shawl. I really like this pattern - it is as easy as it gets yet so much fun to knit.

Shawl details:
Yarn used: 2 x 50 gr of Color Changing Cotton in LILAC BLOSSOMS I + II (one skein each); the yarn is available at wollesyarncreations.etsy.com
Needles: 3.25 mm
Size: 72 inches x 15.5 inches
Pattern: Baktus - available for free here.

FO: Baktus

While I was at NoSoKnit last Saturday, I not only met with new and old friends, but I also finished my first Baktus (yes, first, but certainly not last one).



The scarf turned out really well if I may say so myself. The colors look so much nicer knitted up then they appeared on the skein and the yarn is soooo soft against the skin.

Stats:
I used one 50 gr skein each of GREEN MEDLEY and GREEN MEDLEY II knitted on US3 needles. Final dimensions are 57 inches end to end and 12 inches at the widest point.

1/2 FO: Baktus

Even though I am not finishing any projects, I am certainly starting enough new ones. My Baktus is almost half done (about 1/2 inch missing until the end of the increase section).



I am using 2 x 50gr of Wolle's Color Creations in GREEN MEDLEY. I am surprised how much I enjoy knitting this pattern. It is all garter stitch with a simple increase every 4 rows. Simple yet effective and very nice.
