Gauge swatch on size 8. Went down to size 7 for the blanket. Gauge swatch had several steeks cut into it for testing. Best was when the steek was around 2 single stitches instead of further apart. Used Crochet method to secure stitches, tacked down on the back and did a row of shell stitch…
Started for Madrona trip. 2.5mm needles were just too loose after completing the toe. Bought 2.25 Chiagaoo needles while there and started again. Much better! Adjusting the pattern to match my gauge and the yarn being slightly lighter. Plus, doing them toe-up. used TDTU heel from @KnittingRN, and started rib in center of the rows…
swatched on several diff sized needles, and the larger swatch was so much more helpful to see this new technique. short rows are rockin’.
yarn from 2 years ago at OFFF. Started for knitting on Portland adventure. finished and put in my suitcase w/o weaving in ends even! pics to come. (Wove in ends the day I wore them on vacation!)
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…
Simple triangle to make use of this one fabulous skein from the bargain bin!
