when a frog turns into a prince!!

at the GB woolen store in HK, I purchased a stitches book called, the harmony guide to Knitting Stitches. In it contains all kinds of stitches.

I was looking thru it today thinking that my CC's moss seed stitch scarf was looking sorta plain, so I frogged it and spiced it up with the white one ply yarn and is using the 4 stitches rib. which is simply a stitch done in multiples of 8+4 and it goes *k4, p4* til the end. for every row. it's easy enough to memorize. i've done like 30 rows at least. I must say, i should have use a bigger needle cuz with the two strands held together, it's knitting a bit tight.

I was going to try to finish all the yellow/gold yarn that i frogged in one sitting so that it doesn't get tangled in transition...but too late now. guess i'll just have a fun detangle party later.

p.s. the white one ply yarn...sorta makes everything look snowy... like added cotton! It's just how i feel. shall post pic later.
