Spooky Halloween Garland

It's been really exciting this time working on a 3 way collaboration with both Blacker Yarns and One Leg Countless Threads. The beautiful wool selected for this project was a Romney Guernsey 5-ply, which I had never knitted with before. Obviously it is a slightly heavier weight than a 4-ply but not as heavy as a DK. As it is Halloween themed we chose un-dyed for the ghosts, a nice bright orange for the pumpkins (lovingly dyed, at home, by One Leg Countless Threads), with a touch of green for the stems and a complimenting navy for the I-cord and the character features. All in all a fun project to get your teeth into before the 31st… (No pun intended). The Garland could be made smaller if required. As I have said in the pattern, always do your Tension Square and adjust as stated, if need be. **Yarn:** For the best results, I have recommended the luxurious Blacker Yarns Guernsey - 100% Pure New British Wool Breed: **Romney** **Ball/Skein Length: ** c.50g (c.232m. c.242yds) WPI - c.20 **Finish (Woollen or Worsted):** Worsted **Handle: ** Fine Blacker Yarns specialise in breed specific British Wool yarn all spun and processed in Cornwall and consist of 100% natural fibres. The pattern could be knitted with other 5-ply wool, but do your test square first to ensure you are going to have enough yarn. **This pattern uses:** * 2 x 50g of 5-ply yarn (1 x Orange & 1 x Undyed) 2 x 25g of 5-ply yarn. (1 x Navy & 1 x Green) * You will also need a Stitch Saver, Sewing Pins (to pin the bits of the Pumpkin together), a wool needle and a pair 2.25mm DPN Needles for the I-Cord.
