Notes from my queue to start this off… Caladan Sweater by Tamy Gore Colorwork sweater with graphic diamonds hanging down from the neckline. It needs 1275yd MC/465 CC. I could possibly use a solid DK for the start and do it cropped with short sleeve so no cuffs. Knit Circus Divine DK 3 skeins (780yd)…
This pattern is the Silence Tee by Ruth Nguyen and it was so pretty. It was a good chance to try a yarn base that was summery in Knit Picks Lindy Chain. We’ve had an extra hot summer here, and that influenced my choice! When I saw the colors available, Rouge and Conch jumped out…
Taking one of my cherished skeins of yarn and making a nice lightweight tee to wear over summer clothes.
This tee appeals to me as a way to use a variety of colors together! I love the v in the pattern, but I plan to wear that to the front instead of the back. I chose 5 yarns that had some orange in them, where I alternated multicolor and semi-solids between each other in…
Looking for a nice open-front cardigan. I had the Contented Cardi by Hannah Fettig (happy home) that I made back in 2014 and it’s a bit too small now, but I loved this style. That one doesn’t go up to my current size, and it’s worsted weight, which I couldn’t wear as much of the…
First sweater in process of the year! The idea was to find a basic tee silhouette that I could fit my shape and style easily. Something to wear over dresses or tanks and leggings. Even though the tee itself has a specific style with mohair and stripes, I was able to use my own color…
I’ve made several Ripple Bralettes, and so the Ripple Crop Top was very enticing to me. I love that the designer, Jessie Mae Martinson, is size inclusive and doesn’t shy away from showing fat people in her pictures. I bought a rerelease color from Molly Girl Yarns called Walk This Way, a nice gray with…
Paired up some Suburban Stitcher yarn purchased at zk2017 with a pattern by my friend Megan, Summer Shandy. Cast on provisionally so I could add extra length from my extra yarn. Added gussets under the arms for more spaciousness. Accidentally stopped doing one of the sets of rows in the pattern, so it did not…
Knit with handspun Sun Valley and their DK base to go with. Planned to continue handspun as far as needed instead of just in the yoke. Did not decrease in the underbust, but added more increases. Underarm patterning section is continued all the way down through handspun. I loved spinning this fiber and I loved…
I think I used all this yarn. I don’t know exact dates, but I didn’t finish them before holiday trip. how was this not in my projects yet?!!
