Since I ended up taking pictures with my phone, I downloaded all the critters to my computer, updated my Ravelry page, and now time to update my blog!
First, may I present my first COMPLETE pair of socks! They are worsted-weight, toe-up, two-at-a-time, magic loop! Super simple…no picking up stitches on the heel flap…no muss, no fuss!
These socks come from the KNIT Freedom website. I highly recommend anything from her site. I bought the Knitting Superstar ebook, and it is definitely worth every penney. She just calmly talks you through each step along the way…
And then, at one time, I bought yarn to crochet a baby blanket, the Cabana Blanket to be exact. Well, that puppy was pulling and puckering and I was fussing with it and I thought no amount of blocking was going to cure that…so I ripped it out and found a lovely knitting pattern that used the same amount of yarn in the same amount of colors…may I present….
This is called Playful Stripes by Meredith Shepherd and can be found/bought on Ravelry. It was an easy knit, but lots of ends to weave in! It is the smaller of two sizes. I used Berroco Weekend yarn…very nice yarn!
Scrolling through previous posts…I do see that I never posted a picture of my Drunken Path Scarf. That was another project that got thrown in the closet out of frustration…but I did restart and it is done!
Hopefully I won't wait 7+ months to post again! I am currently working on Jeweled Cowl with Angula lace weight yarn and beads, and after a restart, it is turning out amazingly beautiful! And I also started a pair of toe-up, two-at-a-time socks out of sock weight yarn. See you soon!
