Bunches of Scarves





I have been busy making scarves for my church (they are going to be Christmas gifts for a group we help). The blue scarf with the purple trim is made with Feathers yarn by Caron and Fizz by Crystal Palace Yarns. The burgendy scarf with the gold trim is also Feathers but with Fun Fur. The gold scarf was knit with Crinkle Yarn and Fun Fur.

The black scarf is Fun Fur. I made it for Marie (a friend from work that made me a beautiful bracelet and earrings). Used size 11 on all of them.

So I will make up for it now.... Sultry Lace Socks (Mississippi) by Debbie Haymark from the 50 Socks 50 States CD. I used size 1 dpn (square) and Crystal Palace Panda Soy Yarn in the Provence colorway. I had a little trouble with the pattern and ended up removing 4 repeats. The little bag is a result of the first sock I started! Finished: July 31, 2010

Summer of Color Contest


I made these socks with Simply Socks Yarn Company's Hand Dyed, Solid Sock Yarn. The yarn was wonderful to work with and I used the Magenta and Rose colorways. The pattern I used was the Treasure Lace (Montana) pattern by Denise Henderly from the 50 Socks - 50 States CD. Super yarn and pattern - who can ask for anything more!!!

May Projects Finished







All kinds of goodies this month. Finished the thank you scarf for Louise! Used 2 skeins of Echo ribbon and size 10 needles. Also made a pair of socks for Diana's upcoming grandbaby with Sirdar Magic yarn and the pattern - Jeannee - from Plymouth yarn company and size 3 square dpn's. Finished off the month with a bag I designed. For the bag I used size 6 dpn and Ironstone yarn.

April Shawl for Sallie


Made this as a surprise for a friend at church. Used 3 skeins (almost) of Fluffy yarn and size 11 needles. It was a nobrainer but fun.

Carefree KAL for March


I made these socks for my mom for her birthday. Used the Muir Woods Sock pattern by Kala Hotakainen from the 50 Socks - 50 States CD (California). I used Fleece Artist Sea Wool in the bronze colorway. The yarn has a pretty sheen to it but not alot of give. I used square dpn in size 2.
