[Knitting] Zauberball!

[kniteracy]

I picked up this lovely wool on Wednesday at I Knit London, and now I'm thinking I may get a second ball of it if they still have it on Saturday.

Zauberball translates to 'magic ball', and I think that even in the ball it live up to its name. It's just alive with possibilities, isn't it? The wool comes in an astounding array of colours, not all of them this bright, I promise!

Zauberball! I'm sorry for the blurry photo, iPhone, iPhone, blah, blah, blah, but I really love this wool and the colours are fantastic. It will make up into very long stripes that fade into one another gradually, and right now I'm trying to decide what to make with it. Right now, I'm thinking of the Flit & Float Scarf from this spring's Knitty, or maybe....

Bettie's Lace Stockings

Firestarter

Magic Mirror

Summer Sliding

Which one do you think I should make? :)

The seamstresses' route is absolutely the way to go. In knitting, this is called a steek, as Marion points out. The fabric may fray less easily than you think, but stitching and hemming is very much the way to go here.
