Toast!

I attended a Heywood Banks concert a while back and knitted a couple of these, sewed some pinbacks to them, and my friend and I wore them to the show. Afterwards I gave my toast brooch to Heywood. He seemed to get a kick out of it.

YEAH TOAST!!!

Wanna knit your own toast?

Also available HERE on Ravelry.

Size 5 needles

Worsted weight yarn in...

A - Light Brown

B - Dark Brown

These slices are about 2.5" x 3".

My gauge was approximately 5 stitches per inch, but gauge really isn't all that important. IT'S TOAST!

Bread (make 2)

With color A, cast on 10 stitches

TIP: Slip the first stitch of each row to create a neater edge that will make picking up stitches for the crust easier.

Crust

Use color B.

Place both bread pieces together, right sides facing out, and knit them together using an attached i-cord.

If you are unfamiliar with this technique, HERE IS A GOOD TUTORIAL. I used a 3 stitch i-cord.

Instead of one continuous piece of i-cord edging I did an edge on the top and one on the bottom - breaking it up on each side where the bread curves in. Then as I wove in the yarn ends I tried to shape things by tugging the i-cord ends in toward the bread a bit.

You could probably crochet the edge, instead, if the i-cord bit sounds too fiddly.
