Nessa Wrap [Giveaway] :: Knitting ::

Sunday 20 March 2016


Happy Sunday everyone! And welcome Spring! I was finally able to take pictures of the Nessa wrap since finishing it! I really needed natural light for this shawl, to show off the texture and the amazing colourway of the yarn I used. I may have also needed a bit of time to work out how to take pictures of Nessa. It is really long and wide, and with a lot of detailing, so not necessarily the easiest to capture. But now that Libby has published the pattern, you will be able to find more pictures on Ravelry

I did this test knit for Libby - I have been knitting it for the past 2 months, and as those following me on IG know as I kept bombarding them with pictures of Nessa. The longest part was the middle part (the garter stitch bit), I could not get myself motivated to sit down and just knit it. Give me lace panels and I will be happy to finish these in days. In fact, the lace panel was the reason why I wanted to knit Nessa, and they are amazing. Nessa is a wrap that I will most probably wear as a scarf, I like my scarves really long and wide - so this one is perfect for me.

  10. لأن العبوات البلاستيكية PET يمكن إعادة تدويرها بسهولة وتحويلها إلى منتجات جديدة، فإنها تساهم في تحقيق الاستدامة البيئية وتقليل النفايات البلاستيكية التي تؤثر على البيئة والصحة العامة. وبالتالي، فإن مصانع عبوات بلاستيك pet في مصر تعد من الصناعات الحيوية التي تحقق توازنًا مثاليًا بين الجوانب الاقتصادية والبيئية والاجتماعية.
