Rivolo

No Gravatar

I have only recently discovered KnitSpot and I am in love with Anne’s designs.  This is the start of Rivolo using some Handmaiden Casbah in the “Smoke” colorway.  The yarn and pattern seem to be a perfect match so far, with the lace highlighting the subtle color changes of the yarn.  Handmaiden yarns would be my other new obsession.

Rivolo

I would love to just relax and work on this but I have socks to knit… and some DIC Baby in a gorgeous red that will continue to haunt me until I cast on for the Loopy DIC KAL.  It is hard work being a knitter!

    I, too, am a great fan of Anne Hanson and her designs. I’m knitting Rivolo myself, with some Crystal Palace Mikado, because I had to use stash yarn right now. I think I’ll knit it again sometime with something more subtle, but I like the mikado drape. Yours looks lovely!

    I also am a huge fan of Anne Hanson!!! I love the Rivolo pattern and plan to start mine after the Ravelympics.

    Your scarf is coming along beautifully!!! Gorgeous color!

    The more Knitspot patterns you buy, the more you’ll want. I love her patterns and how she presents them.
