A flurry of fleece
I’ve been a very bad blogger, and it’s been a long time since I posted anything about knitting. So let’s catch up, shall we? First there’s Mailin, made from some lovely, squishy merino. The cowl neck is optional, and I … Continue reading
On the needles
So after all of the finished work, what’s on the needles now? Some very unflattering pictures of my work in progress: Holey Square, in gold-colored silk, which looks a bit ragged now, but hopefully will look MUCH better when finished … Continue reading
FO: Gathered Scarf
AKA: The Giant Tootsie Roll This was a good travel project – easy to just pick up and work on without needing a pattern, and small enough to be portable. Pattern: Gathered Scarf: Pattern page, Project Notes Yarn: Filatura di … Continue reading
Matched set
I finished the new Extra, out of the yummy cashmere yarn Kim overdyed for me. Since I had plenty of yarn, decided to make some matching headwear. There wasn’t really enough yarn for a hat, so instead I decided to … Continue reading

FO: Henslowe
Finally I have another finished object for you. This is Henslowe. Here’s a better look at the pretty edging: It’s written for a fingering-weight yarn, but I made it with a lace-weight silk/linen blend. The construction was very interesting. First … Continue reading
FO: A Little Bit Bohemian
Stacey declared this my Iditarod knitting. I guess since I finished it before the last team came in, that’s good enough. The scarf is knit from yarn handspun by Margene. I think it’s lovely and worked well with this pattern. … Continue reading
BoHo
I recently started a new project out of our lovely Margene‘s beautiful handspun. The pattern is called “A Little Bit Bohemian“, and it’s a simple garter stitch scarf that’s totally reversible. With the sideways construction, it’s great for just using … Continue reading
