They are all the rage. So in about 3 years I should see a lot of them around town. (That's how it goes in the midwest.) I found this free pattern online: http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/en/visoppskrift.php?d_nr=94&d_id=16&lang=en
This is my favorite site for free knitting and crochet patterns. Their yarn is reasonably priced too. I was tempted on the yarn for this one, but then decided to make this my first project from the wool/angora (Fritz) blend that I am spinning now. Moebius knitting can be tricky to start, so I found this great tutorial on youtube.
Now the trick is to locate a size 9 40" long circular needle. Anyone have a good source? It seems that 29" is the longest anyone carries locally. {Update-I found 14 different sizes in one set for $20. This is the store I purchased from: http://stores.ebay.com/KNITTING-EXPO They have 100% positive feedback and lots of fun items for a great price.)
The neat thing about a Moebius shawl is that it can be worn as a hood or doubled around for a cowl scarf.
This is gorgeous! It’s almost enough to make me want to take up knitting. hmm… dare I try?
Oh, you definitely should take up knitting–grin. I’ve been a crocheter since I was 7, but found some lovely knitting patterns a few years ago and decided to try to learn. I used youtube videos to learn how to cast on, knit, and purl. To follow patterns it helps to know how to slip a stitch, knit 2 together, increase, and bind off. Just play around and learn 1 thing at a time.
