All them ruffles..

Hi all, May here.


I got a newsletter from Lion Brand, announcing their new yarn called Ruffles. I thought this would be an interesting way to cheat when going for a ruffled look. The yarn looks like a webbed / knitted tape. The pic on the right is an example ruffled scarf from made from the yarn. You can get the pattern for it on Lion's website but you have to have registered with them to get it (free registration).

You knit through the yarn instead of having the yarn wrap around your needles.

Here's a page from their website demonstrating it.

I'd be interested to hear feedback from anyone who's tried it!
