Alien Illusion Scarf

I knitted up the Alien Illusion from Stitch and Bitch. The chart confused the heck of me in the beginning, though I forget why.

If you've never seen or heard of illusion knitting before, it's a way of knitting with two colors, where purl stitches raise one color so an image is seen when it's at an angle.

Face on it looks like this:


From an angle you see the illusion!

This will be my last completed project for a few days, it's because me and my fella are going to Gualala, a little ocean town a few hours away for the weekend.

My First Knitted Sweater

My first knitted sweater! Also my first knitted baby item. I'm very proud of this one. I didn't use a pattern, I figured it out with math and determination.



Also, the buttons match. The lighting was weird or something. Also I'm not a photographer.
