Works in Progress

Stuff that’s on the needles right now.

Stephanie Pearl-McPhee’s Snowdrop Shawl:

KnitPicks Bare merino laceweight, 4mm circulars, pattern from the Yarn Harlot - available as a pdf in her sidebar.

Squirrel and Oak Mittens:

Pattern from Hello Yarn. Worked in Suri Merino, possibly the worlds most impractical mitten yarn ever, but it’s what he picked. Size 3 dpn. He loves the pattern - he loves the yarn. The only problem? It’s the wrong size. To be inherited by the Bee when finished, and meanwhile I try to figure out how to up the size for him.

A red lace scarf:

SRK Ovation Kid Mohair and Silk yarn, on 4.5 mm circulars. Arches and Columns pattern from Crystal Palace Yarns, via Straw.com.

A baby blanket:

A tesselating fish afghan:

Mission Falls 1820 superwash, size 8 needles, the pattern from Iris.

For the Red Scarf Project:

A red scarf. Farrow rib on size 7 needles, Caron One Pound acrylic.

For Made by Hand:

KFI Gaelic Aran - this is a heavy worsted superwash wool from England - as in made in England from English sheep, apparently. Standard ribbed scarf, size 10 and half needles.

Stella Maris:

A scarf for the August 2006/Lolita project for Knit the Classics. Sorta not exactly really kinda my own design. KnitPicks Alpaca cloud in Tide Pool colourway, size four needles. Still not done as of 5/2007.
