- One lace, cables or colourwork project
- One project with wide sections of stockinette or garter stitch which can include one knit-in-pieces sweater or cardigan or one knit in the round.
- One modular blanket for leftovers
- Socks or other small portable project
As well as the above mentioned project types, one must take care to use different needles and varying gauges and sorts of yarn. At least three types of yarn should be used including at least two different weights and two or three different fibres or fibre blends. Please match needles and yarn accordingly.
On must also study contiguous fibre disciplines in alternation and progression, such as crochet, dying and rug hooking.
Managed properly, these projects will rise to the rescue of any idle moment for the average person.
