Mom’s potholder set
I made a set of potholders for my mom for Christmas.
Kristine’s purple scarf
I used a stitch pattern book to find the nicest rib for this soft soft scarf. It’s a long skinny scarf ith a lot of fringe, but really warm from the boucle.
Leah’s scarf
I started out with size 7 needle and k1p1 knit and it was too dense so I switched to size 10 and it was perfect. I taught myself to knit continential with this scarf. When gifting this, I made a flower to tie it up, and that turned out very pretty.
Valentine Socks
This was my first pair of socks, and I used this pattern because it was on the shelf as a free tear off, and I knew I couldn’t go as wrong by buying the yarn specified in a pattern like this. I liked the colors a lot, I’m a big fan of valentine’s day. I…
Basic dishcloth
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.
Jewel-toned Garterlac
This was a delightful way to learn basic entrelac. I really like how it turned out, and the colors make me happy every time I wipe off the counter.
Willow Dishcloth
This is another prototype dishcloth that I’m working on for potential publication for the pattern. It uses right twists (RT) to create a cool line through the pattern that reminds me of willow branches. Update, 2/18/08: I have one of these done in Westport, and I’m working on improving the pattern again so that RTs…
Sunshine dishcloth
This is a prototype for a dishcloth. I’d like to write it up as a pattern, but first I’d like to make some adjustments to make the center hole smaller. I love how the long “rays” of sun go around.
cell phone cozy
Before going on a trip, I wanted to have something to cushion my phone with. After trying a few yarn combinations, I finally came up with something fun and soft and a little stretchy. The butterfly kisses makes it a little crazier than I was thinking but that’s okay, I can’t loose it this way…
Set of Baby Bibs.
These were my “knit at the beach” project while on vacation. I finished the second one once we got home. I used the general concept of the Mason Dixon bibs (CO 40, straps are 10), but I didn’t have the pattern with me, so I just guessed how long to make the bib and the…
