From my perilously low one project on the needles this past weekend, I’m back up to the usual three! Two is the Elizabeth Montague socks of earlier post fame. Today’s start is the Patina scarf from AC Knitwear’s Confident Knitting technique club, and the technique is embroidering on knitting. First you have to knit your… Continue reading And Then There Were Three
My Variance hat is done! This is the May project for AC Knitwear’s Confident Knitting club, and the skill this month was catching floats.

The pattern is Flux handwarmers by Martina Behm, and is part of the Confident Knitting technique/pattern club from AC Knitwear. The yarn is Zauberball Crazy in the Submarine/U Boot colorway. Very happy with them 🙂
My other new project this month is the Flux handwarmers. They are part of the AC Knitwear new pattern club, Confident Knitting. The main technique for this one is folded hems, which I have done before. But I did learn a new way of doing the crochet provisional cast on, so that was good! I… Continue reading Flux Handwarmer Start
