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!

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. I started this over the summer and then set it aside for some Halloween knitting. At this point, the back and fronts are done and I am… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs

I actually starting this Friday night after I finished the Water shawl, but that doesn’t have any alliteration 🙂 I got my Throwback cardigan started, and it is going so fast! Seriously, after so many projects with fingering weight yarn and little needles, this thing is growing like magic. I have one more series of… Continue reading Saturday Start

Tomorrow I am off on my first work trip for this go-round. This time it’s to Juneau, AK. I get there tomorrow morning, and will hopefully be home Thursday night, knock wood. Other than the work part of the time there, my entire planning for this trip has been yarn-based. What am I wearing? Who… Continue reading Packing

I interrupt my story about VK Live – will get back to that tomorrow.  I finished my Gray Cardigan! It fit great and exactly what I wanted.  It will work great with my wardrobe, and is basically perfect. Sigh!  So happy! The yarn is Ironstone Warehouse Flake Cotton, which as far as I know is… Continue reading Gray Cardigan is Done!

A Call to Arms

Yes, sorry – another sleeve joke 🙂 That’s what I have been working on – sleeves.  Although these are short (elbow length) sleeves, they seem to be taking forever to knit.  In reality, it’s been a little less than a week.  It just feels like so much longer! Two more inches to go, then I… Continue reading A Call to Arms

Fronts and Center!

September 8, 2018 quiteayarnblog4 Comments

The Gray Cardigan fronts are done and sort of blocking! As you can tell from these photos, by “blocking” I mean I soaked them and then squeezed most of the water out of them, and then patted them more or less into shape on my washer and dryer, where they will lay until they are… Continue reading Fronts and Center!
