This week’s swatch is Parenthetical Rib from the Second Treasury. Eh, I’m not a fan. It reminds me too much of a labrys or other double-bladed axe to be suitable for a knitting pattern. Then again, if you’re searching for an axe-like knitting pattern, I’ve found just the thing!

I love that you’re doing the walker treasury project. I really enjoy looking at all the swatches knit up. I would do it myself if i weren’t so lazy.

What’s funny is that I didn’t see axes at all until you said it, and now that you have, that’s ALL I see!

Berserker alert! All those axes! Yikes!

PS: I tagged you for an award on my blog today. I’m enjoying your meander through the BW treasuries!

funny — I did not see axes either. I saw some sort of plant matter — like leaf blades or something

Kind of reminds me of something out of Jack and the Beanstalk.

Well, now I have the knitting stitch should my 9yo son ask for a viking costume. Which is not as far fetched as i wish it was.
