The final of the four Brea bags.
I doubled the yarn. See the other 3 colors in my projects for how the handles turned out.
I don’t have a finished picture for this one, just the other 3.

A quick knit because I needed them for a baby shower. This was my first time using very small needles, and my first time making booties at all. They turned out good, even though I accidentally modified the pattern slightly!
This is the easiest dishcloth pattern, it knits up super quick and is really nice to use in the kitchen or give as gifts. I added stripes of a variegated yarn with a white base to give it a little extra specialness.
see favs for f+f on top of foot. found out (after completing the heel) i had dropped a stitch in the foot! I had somewhere increased to compensate but the little stitch was hanging out waiting for me. I put a stitch marker through it and it was good for the rest of the knitting…
mixed weights – worsted, sport, sport-ish handspun. gauge on worsted was a touch tight, so went up in stitch count from the biggest size, and knit the back a little longer. rather than welts for the rows, knit in garter. added short rows surrounding the top of the vest to add more length without adding…
5st x 7rows pre blocking. eased up only a little on blocking, blocked flat not stretched.
