My last entry – Bulky Red Himalaya Zigzag Lace Scarf

By llr, on September 20th, 2008%

I just started this a couple of weeks ago. It’s a fast easy pattern. I’m planning on giving it as a gift to a very fair complexioned, blue eyed, blonde lady. Do you think this red will look good on that type of coloring? I hope so. You can see all the project . . . → Read More: My last entry – Bulky Red Himalaya Zigzag Lace Scarf Read more »

(The specs, for those of you playing along at home: Hemlock Ring Blanket, as adapted by Jared Flood of BrooklynTweed; Cascade Eco-Wool; size 10 needles)

I love this pattern. I think it’s going to be link . . . → Read More: Hopelessly devoted . . . Read more »

Startitis Strikes Again!!!

By dplantlady, on September 4th, 2008%

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.

I’ve also knit up another quickie on Size 13s with a very simple lace pattern, an oddly . . . → Read More: Startitis Strikes Again!!! Read more »

Finished Object!

By escr, on September 3rd, 2008%

Hey y’all!

I managed to actually finish an object. I got totally captivated by “Juliet”, bought the yarn at Stitches Midwest, and just cast off this morning. Used 600 yds of Malabrigo Worsted. Here’s a picture (albeit a crappy one, it’s still blocking:

EEEE-GADS!

By dplantlady, on July 21st, 2008%

More than 500 stitches per round now, soooo slooooow, and it doesn’t help that I’ve decided to get creative and not completely follow the given pattern, so each pattern row I sit and stare and think & look through books and and and…

But I HAD to check out the diameter, so put it on 5 circulars . . . → Read More: EEEE-GADS! Read more »

Generations purse

By littlelena, on July 20th, 2008%

I finished my Generations purse using Reynolds Cabana cotton. I like the Cabana Cotton it is very light and squishy for being a bulky cotton. I think I will line this bag with some batik fabric I have.

Plodding along, I am…

By dplantlady, on July 20th, 2008%

The Peacock Mananita is going along well, but gosh the rounds are getting long! I really wonder how anyone ever finishes a pi shawl or any other of the ginormous round shawls with thousands of stitches at the outer edge!!! I’m up to the fourth round of holes now. It’s taking surprisingly LESS yarn than I . . . → Read More: Plodding along, I am… Read more »
