Knitty's Slingshot... kind of.
To teach myself stranding, I started off with something easy, the Slingshot. Only I made it useful.

Oh I love that! I agree that it is much more useful than the original. I though that was weird when I saw it, too.

Good job! I agree with Jan that it's much more useful than the first. And your first time at stranding is great!

I agree that yours is much more practical! I need to make my sister one of those, so I'll be "copying" your modifications!

It looks fabulous!
