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…
For Katy in some KP yarn, maybe worsted instead of sport. In red, grey, black, whites. Maybe a little shorter and skinnier than the example. Finished 9/3, just need to weave ends in and document the info here! Even though it was a little tedious changing colors on every row, it was an interesting knit.
Making out of leftover and new Shine Sport in a stripey pattern. Cast on with a lace scallop pattern to make the bottom edge special. Made longer than the pattern and did a little shaping to make it flare slightly at the waist. The top straps are alternating colors (pink on front, green on back)…
Started May 13 or 14th. Similar to my craft bag, but with some ribbony yarn carried along side. The small bag is all ribbon, and the large bag has ribbon stripes.
I had this yarn sitting around from a clearance sale, and I needed to make something for my brother’s girlfriend. This was a pattern I’d seen at the library and really liked. I think I’d like to try making it again in the actual yarn it calls for, but hopefully this will soften up and…
I didn’t have a recipient in mind, I just needed something to do while on a trip. And I wanted to see how Stripes worked out in this pattern. Pretty cool actually, a pleasing color scheme and a nice knit. I did the picking up a little nicer this time around; by going into more…
