Magic trousers

September 9, 2008

The other week I discovered this pair of trousers in my scrap knitting box. They must have been lurking there for a while unbeknownst to me. I emptied the box out late in the afternoon – in a vague effort to find something interesting for my lovely 1 year old to play with while I cooked dinner- and lo and behold the trousers metaorphosized on the floor.  All I had to do was sew them up. One minute a jumble of misshapen squares, a fanciful flukish flick of the wrist and wahlah, there before me were the trousers. Suddenly my mind was opened up to an entire wardrobe made out of simple granny squares!

Don’t you love it when things just seem to create themselves?
