Many many thanks to KnitFlix for going the distance to google this pattern for me! I stopped on Google’s second page of results but she kept on plugging away!

Here is the link to the pattern she found: http://www.knittingfever.com/cgi-bin/cgi_c.exe?FreePatterns/solo-pattern.pdf and she also sent me a blog post about it: http://www.knitsonya.com/mt/2006/12/little_bit_of_knitting.html

I ended up doing 10 stitches. I used the 3 balls of Online Linie that I bought at Loopy Yarns when I was in Chicago. It’s a fast knit although I did not knit it in the 2 hours that Yarn Harlot did by any means. I guess all told it took about 6 hours here and there.

I also finished the Monterey Bay scarf that was in Interweave Knits Summer 07. One skein of FA SeaSilk in “Woodland” makes for a scarf about 7′ long. I still have to braid the fringe, but she’s finis!
Tip - Denise needles may be too slick to use with this yarn. I knit this a lot on the bus and had problems with the needles losing stitches when we went over bumps.

Finished the Mason Dixon baby kimono just in time to pass it on the the recipient at our family reunion today.
The yarn is 2 balls of Sugar n Cream. I used little car buttons and crocheted the loops.
