Geocache Description:


This is my very first geocache!  To celebrate it, I decided to merge two of my favourite hobbies: geocaching and knitting.

I have a large collection of vintage knitting patterns and some of them can be very confusing... I found this scrap which doesn't seem to make anything but a very strange piece of fabric.  Perhaps it means something else.
