Since my current WIP is a little bit of a secret right now, I’m going to talk about what’s up next! First, I plan to finish my other current WIPs – my Vertices Unite, my Yawl cardigan, and my Mom’s Christmas Feeling mitts. I am pretty well along in section 3 of Vertices Unite (the… Continue reading What’s Next?
I don’t have anything to report on my WIPs this week, as I have set them all aside to do a test knit! Michele Bernstein of PDXknitterati was looking for test knitters for a new cowl/shawl called Cosette, and it looks like such a cool project I decided to give it a try! The knitting… Continue reading Look! A Shiny Thing!
I’ve got at least a little progress in on all of the current projects. Still on section 3 of Vertices United. Back finished on my Yawl cardigan – on to the fronts! This is not blocked, which is why it’s wonky. And finally, a little progress on my Mom’s Christmas mitten. What are you working… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
I got a very small start on my Mom’s Christmas mittens! The pattern is Christmas Feeling (Ravelry link), and the yarn is Knit Picks Palette in Garnet Heather, Cream and Ivy. I probably won’t post a lot about these until they are given and opened. I’m relatively sure my Mom does not read my blog,… Continue reading Monday Mittens
Well, I finally did it – I mended one of my knitted items. Not many of my hand-knits have worn out on me yet, and the few that did I just threw out. However, the last thing to get a hole was one of my stripy Christmas socks. That is a relatively new pair of… Continue reading On the Mend
The gray thing is the back for my Yawl cardigan. It is knitting up really quickly, and I love the yarn! It is a little ironic that I went from one project I complained about because it was boring stockinette to another project that is basically boring stockinette. But that’s how it goes sometimes. Both… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
I got to spend a lot of time lazing around Sunday, which let me get two more blocks done for my National Parks afghan! This one is for Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. The image the designer chose is a Rocky Mountain Blue Columbine flower. I worked this in a mix of intarsia and… Continue reading Two More National Park Blocks
One project ends, the next begins! Next up is Yawl by Amy Herzog. I got this as a Custom Fit pattern a few years ago, and am happy to finally be making it! The yarn I am using is Noro Silk Garden Solo in Light Gray (02). It is working up really quickly – yay… Continue reading Saturday Start
I’m continuing to make progress on my Vertices Unite. I’m not working on it a lot, but some. And I’m happy with how the orange looks with the blues. Pop!! And my Damele top is finally done! It is somewhat translucent so I’ll have to wear something under it, but I have plenty of tank… Continue reading A WIP and a FO
Quite A Yarn
