  1. I don't get it. How do you get such uneven sections of colour?

  3. Sorry it took so long. You get the color from just how the yarn is. It just goes from black to white to black, etc.

  4. Thanks, for replying, Alex. :)

    Ohhhhhh, it's the yarn! But it says "yarn in Zebra and Black (1 skein each," so I thought you alternated 1 skein of Zebra and one of white while knitting .. just couldn't figure out how to get them that uneven. So it's only 1 skein of Zebra yarn then, which is black and white?

  6. Yeah I kind of messed that up. I WAS going to give it a zebra mane in black, but I couldn't figure out how to do that right.

  8. Hi,

    I’m writing to you because I’d love to contribute a guest post.

    I’ve been brainstorming some topics that I think your readers would get a ton of value. Here is a sample of my blog http://littleknittingfairy.co.uk/knitting-craft-makes-comeback/

    I’ll make sure the piece overflows with information that can’t be found anywhere else.

    Cheers,
    Joan
