Started to work on the night of book sale setup (had to be at the mall for extra hours). Two socks on two circs. Using Riverbed + Fleegle Heel + a herringbone stitch + lace on the foot and sides. Heel, toe, and cuff will be purple. Hope to use a picot hem with eyelets…
Started on the diagonal and added random stripes of doubled Shine + Sparkles. Did the yarns doubled for the fringe as well. Simple and easy!
Can’t wait to try this, it’s my favorite out of New Pathways 1. I started these socks and found that mid-way through the foot, my gauge changed from my originals. I should have noticed, they seemed small even though I could put them on. I wasn’t happy with my improved pattern in them the first…
For my trip to CA? Try to adjust to make in the round for less finishing work. Update 11/14: Swatched today and started in the round magic-loop-style. Update 11/21: worked in the round for the sleeves, went back to back and forth for the body, and then back to the round. I didn’t get quite…
Update 11/14: I’ve made 2 of the 3 pieces of this – front and back – but not the between piece. I plan to line this with a pink cupcake fabric, and attach with a pink flower button. I may actually make a flower out of ribbon to attach to the side. I doubled the…
Possible present for Sarah, if I can make it fast enough. I’ve never felted before, but I’m willing to try for her. Update: 11/14: Started this project so I’ll be able to bring it with my on my thanksgiving trip. I picked out colors which I think Sarah will like instead of the pattern colors….
Started Thyme on halloween. Casting on took a while, and the pattern wasn’t very intuitive the first side through. I made a chart to help me, and will upload that to Ravelry or my knitting site soon. Update 11/14: made all 3 pieces – front, back, and stripe for between. Just need to attach together….
Found yarn in my stash to make some quick socks to match the outfits I got Leonard IV for his 2nd birthday. Started with one sock using Lion Brand’s pattern, (Knit Child’s Solid Socks)pattern, but my gauge was too tight and so they turned out too small. I started again using Magic Loop to do…
Using the remaining skeins from the clapotis given to my MIL. Used about a third of my leftover yarn. I didn’t make the button holes from the pattern or add buttons, it’s just a scarf. I wasn’t specific about how many rows between between garter stitch. And I can see a few spots where I…
Started on making the set of placemats (need 14-18 of them) and will do a table runner that is doubled yarn which can serve as a potholder too. Updated 11/14: 4 1/2 placemats are completed, but I took a break while working on other projects. I must get back into these! Updated 12/16: I’m starting…
