Raspberry Ribbons

Lacy Ribbon Scarf (from the Spring 2008 Knitty), take two:

This time in a much lighter sock yarn–Green Mt Spinnery’s Sock-Art Forest in a sort of raspberry color.  Much better drape the thicker yarn I used last time.  I’m about 2/3 of the way done–this is a good . . . → Read More: Raspberry Ribbons Read more »

Casting on again

I couldn’t resist this one, though I did try. Here is the Mystery Stole 4, from Pink Lemon Twist. I’m working on the second part now, and hope to be done both in time for clue 2.

I finished my scarf from the fur of my lovely dog blue

And I’ve cast on for a Gust scarf (Anne Hanson) in Knitpicks Aegean colorway.

But I knit a lot while evacuated, when I could see . . . → Read More: New fo, 2 new cast ons Read more »

Startitis Strikes Again!!!

Started going through & entering my stash in Ravelry (don’t even ask…it’s scary, really scary…I think they’ll have to bury me with yarn & needles…) and I couldn’t resist starting this to see what the SWS would do with it.
