Saturday Sweaterday!

December 24, 2022 quiteayarnblog12 Comments

My cardigan is finally done!! Patten is Drops 106-11 Jacket with Shawl Collar. (Ravelry link) The yarn is Tivoli Collezione S. Charles (?) 52% silk and 48% kid mohair, so it is beautifully drapey. It was just plain white, but Alissa of Headknits custom dyed it for me. She used a very cool technique that… Continue reading Saturday Sweaterday!

Snowmageddon

Sorry I’ve been a little quiet – we’ve been battling snowmageddon up here! We got 20 inches of snow middle of last week and couldn’t get out of the house Wednesday. Plowing was pretty slow to happen, so schools got cancelled and all kinds of things shut down. Things were almost back to normal by… Continue reading Snowmageddon

I’m back to having three projects on the needles! First is my Drops cardigan, which I’m knitting out of yarn hand dyed by my friend Alissa of Headknits.

Snowflake Cowl is Done!

December 4, 2022 quiteayarnblog12 Comments

This is my second short cowl from the Holiday Doodle cowl pattern. It’s a pretty simple one – the pattern has a lot of lovely stranded knitting motifs included, but I just picked a couple for this one. The yarn is all Knit Picks Swish in White, Arctic, Serene, and Dusk. I’m happy with it… Continue reading Snowflake Cowl is Done!

I’m down to just 2 active WIPs right now, but that should change pretty soon. I’m still working on my blue/green cardigan, and the other is a new one I just cast on. I’m doing a second Holiday Doodle cowl for myself. Snowflake theme! I’m just making this a single-sided medium size cowl, so hopefully… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs

November 23, 2022 quiteayarnblog10 Comments

The Holiday Doodle cowl I made for my Mom is done! It was a fun and easy knit, and she is already wearing it around the house 🙂 It’s all stranded colorwork, except I duplicate stitched the red berries on the holly pattern band. Soon I’m hoping to cast on one for myself using different… Continue reading Holiday Doodle Cowl #1 Done!
