In my handbag, I have 200g of Malabrigo worsted in salmon pink, 200g of Artesano alpaca aran in dark brown and 100g of black Debbie Bliss pure silk. That's a world of soft and none of it's for me. They're all for Christmas and Birthday knitting that had better be appreciated.
Tomorrow Rachel and I are going to have a table at the Temple Beth Am craft fair. So far I have yarn, hats and a lot of baby kntis ready to go. I'm trying to get a bunch of soap and lip-BLAM! ready as well. Please think your best thoughts and prayer and vibes at us to sell a lot of our stuff! As of now, if I could sell everything I'm bringing, I could make over $1000. This would be awesome,...

...on all the knowledge she'd discovered after a visit with the screen-used original. It's a thing of beauty - I opted for the Season 13 pattern to fit my height and the Brown Sheep worsted weight colors Tara recommends on her website http://wittylittleknitter.com . Two interesting things I noticed. This new scarf is narrower than my previous two scarves. It's about 9" wide whereas my others are 14...
..., Yarn Forward Issue 19 Yarn: Knitpicks Palette in Bison and Almond Needles: US# 2.5 and 3 Began: Nov 4, 2009 Completed: Nov 16, 2009 Mods: I decided to make this a fingering weight sweater instead of worsted. My gauge worked out that by following the 48" pattern size, I would end up with a 32" sweater. I had to do additional calculations for row gauge, but it all seemed to work out. I did my own...
... My stashbuster socks are in my notebook, you can find more information on them here . I also wrote up some suggestions for using hand dyed yarns in sweaters. I started dyeing some bigger worsted weight hanks and I thought it would inspire some of my customers... and anyone who uses hand dyed or handspun for that matter!

...of the Swedish flag for a Christmas present. It's been a beast of a project, but I'm in the home stretch. I'd like to put a border around the edge. Because it's single stitch, 5.5mm, with worsted yarn, it's a very flat, slightly loose blanket. I'm picturing a border that has some thickness to it - something you could reach down and grab and it would be substantial in your hand as you pull it up ...

I haven't posted an update in awhile but I finished my blue toned Series 12 scarf. I didn't modify it when I used worsted weight instead of sports yarn and so it ended up being longer than it should have. Pairing that with me not being 6 feet tall... and well, you'll see how long it is on me below the cut. (sorry for me not being... always the most photographic person.) All of these can be ...
