his is my first ever skein of 100 cashmere i am beyond excited to have this sweet skein i ve never bought 100 cashmere before and i m dying to know what it feels like i have a jared flood cowl pattern in mind for it this one to be exact and i bought yarn to knit this this is the beautiful new design from julie at knitted bliss wildflower tank and it s featured in the spring issue of ik i d been looking at some summer tanks to knit soon and when i saw this on julie s blog i knew it would be my next garment project i couldn t get 100 silk at the lys so i ve picked something else i ll be swatching this weekend and will let you know if it will work and show you when i cast on so much yarn so little time to knit actually i get lots of time to knit but i still want more time shame we can t knit our sleep posted by denise at 12 19 pm 8 comments friday february 10 2012 dahlia dahlia by heather zoppetti yarn manos del uruguay serena needles us 4 i enjoyed knitting this but think i could have gone down another needles size as the stitches were very loose on the needle when this was blocked and finished i first tried it on with a tank underneath but it kept slipping off my shoulders then i put a long sleeve t on underneath and it felt much better i ll still try to wear it with a tank or t shirt the t shirt might help it from slipping as it will be a nice cardi for the spring or cool summer evenings ha ha who am i kidding we never get cool summer evenings here in tx posted by denise at 5 55 am 8 comments labels dahlia wednesday february 8 2012 the drifty set i finished the mittens that matched the drifty hat and i love them my ravelry link is here i loved this pattern the minute i saw it on one of diane s podcasts i bought the hat and mittens pattern on ravelry and knit the hat within a day the mittens always take me longer because i tend to put them to one side to do the thumbs later then inevitably i cast on for something else and they get left in the wip basket for a while luckily these didn t stay there for very long i m happy to say my daughter loved this set too hopefully we will get a few cold days before spring really gets here although it was 77 degrees one day earlier this week so who knows we may already have seen the last of winter here in tx i am seriously considering knitting a set for myself but i may wait until we get colder weather again probably much later this year my dahlia cardigan is blocked and finished and i wore it for the first time last weekend for a trip to my lys more about that later posted by denise at 6 01 pm 2 comments labels drifty thursday february 2 2012 too busy to blog i like it i m so glad i decided that this year is going to be a me year for knitting i am having so much fun with it not to mention that i am just loving watching the new video podcasts that i recently discovered while i knit i don t know how i didn t notice them sooner some of the podcasters have been going for nearly 2 years and others have only just started both are fun to watch i am adding the podcasts that i like to follow in my sidebar so it shows the date when they have uploaded a new video which is usually once a week a little confession my favorite day of the week is now thursday that s when diane from knitabulls uploads her new podcast and i have to admit she is my most favorite to watch right now i ve never been one to have much of a stash but oh my word i want to buy just about everything she shows us each week i guess that s why they call it enabling one of the things she mentioned recently and other podcasters have too are the project bags from lois at knittings my bag seems like every time lois posts her bags they are bought up super quick i don t usually use project bags but i want to now that i ve seen everyone else using them i could have bought one last week when lois updated her etsy shop but when i went to purchase one i realized that my paypal account didn t have any money in it and i needed to transfer some from my bank that usually takes a few days for the transaction to complete so i sent a pm to lois and asked if she could hold the bag for me or would she have any others pretty soon by the end of that day all of lois s bags had sold i m so glad i pm d her though because she sent me a message back saying she can custom make the bag for me when i was ready to order i ve just noticed i missed another shop update today and looks like all of the bags except one have already sold again i have one on order so i will have to be patient and hopefully i will get it in the next couple of weeks so i have been knitting lots and dahlia is finally off the needles yay i have blocked it too but just haven t had a chance to take photos of me wearing it i will share that next time i also cast on for a quick knit this past week which was altounyan by lily kate i haven t taken any photos of me wearing this either but i did snap a shot of it just after i cast off because i don t like wearing any wool around my neck it s just too scratchy for me i chose to knit this in a soft acrylic pattern altounyan by lily kate yarn dark horse fantasy pink needle size us7 this was such an easy pattern and i loved how it turned out i ve already worn it a few times too i ll try to get some modeled shots soon the pattern was a free gift from lily to say thank you to everyone for supporting her this past year and speaking of freebies well prizes really i won this wonderful skein of laughing yaffle yarn from josiekitten a few weeks ago thankfully it didn t take too long to get it in the mail from england along with it came some yummy english sweeties that i hadn t had in years minstrels they re like m m s on steroids but all chocolate coated not different colors thank you again jk i m loving them both here s a picture of the yarn not a very good picture i m afraid hopefully you ll get to see it better when i take a picture of the wip i have now well when i take a picture of it that is i was thinking i d use this yarn for socks but then i decided to cast on for magrathea after seeing tina s fo on her podcast knitting blooms she recently had a kal for it but that s over now so i ll be knitting this one alone not that i mind at all i loved the look of hers and couldn t wait to cast on once i bought the pattern last weekend i ve only knit about 10 rows so far it s patiently waiting for me as i finish up the drifty mittens and another cowl that i just started yesterday no pics of the new cowl but it s the la la love you cowl i m joining in with diane at knitabulls for her february kal yes so much to knit so little time posted by denise at 11 32 am 6 comments labels altounyan wednesday january 25 2012 yarn along 1 25 joining in with ginny for yarn along this week i m almost finished with my dahlia cardigan i just have to knit one more sleeve which i m already half way through i have both sleeves still on the needles because i wasn t sure how much yarn i would have left the first sleeve needs a few more rows of moss stitch if i have enough yarn i m hoping i ll finish it by the weekend and i can block it i m so excited as much as i want to finish dahlia quickly i sometimes just need a break from knitting with the same yarn i cast on for the drifty mitten last night actually late afternoon and i finished it last night all except the thumb i m knitting with the same yarn again hobby lobby s i love this wool but using size 6 needles it has turned out a perfect size for kristen s hands usually mitts that i knit often turn out a little big i ll probably try to finish dahlia before i cast on for the second mitten i finished reading cutting for stone by abraham verghese last week for our book club so before i start our next monthly read which is girl in translation i thought i would pick up the harry potter book again i started the 5th book weeks ago and am not even half way through it i d like to get it read so i can watch the movie i haven t seen the 5th 6th and 7th movie yet but i want to read the books first posted by denise at 8 48 am 7 comments labels dahlia drifty yarn along saturday january 21 2012 fo s yay i have fo s my first for 2012 i have been knitting up a storm this week got my pink socks finished i realized that the reason they were turning out big was because they were meant to wear over socks duh i am thinking of getting some of that puffy paint stuff to put on the bottom of them to make them non slip pattern double knit over socks by ray reid yarn king cole splash dk needles us 4 i saw this pattern this week on a podcast i was watching it was an older podcast from diane at knitabulls i am rather addicted to her podcasts right now and keep watching old ones while i wait for her new weekly ones i would quite happily watch all of them from last year but for some reason they don t show up on my ipad and that is what i use to watch while i m sitting with my feet up knitting the pattern is called drifty it s from the red collection by mandy powers i don t like anything with fairisle or intarsia in it because i hate knitting it or so i thought i loved the look of this hat so much i wanted to give it a try what a pleasant surprise to discover that actually fairisle is much easier to knit than intarsia i discovered something new too all the time i was knitting intarsia it was so slow going because you had to cross the yarn over but with fairisle you don t have to actually twist the yarn as you knit i m sure most of you all know this already it makes knitting something like this so much faster than i expected i started this yesterday and finished it off this morning i would have finished it last night but my neighbor came over for a glass of wine so i put it down but oh my gosh i just love it and i am so proud of myself for trying something i thought i didn t like and finding out i actually do like it i didn t have any bulky yarn for it but i thought if i knit the largest size and use worsted weight wool it might turn out the right size for kristen and it did i want to order the lambs pride bulky yarn to knit this for me now too and make us both a pair of mittens to match the only sad part is we won t probably wear these until next winter it already feels like spring here in tx with temps in the 70 s this week pattern drifty yarn hobby lobby s i love this wool needles size us 8 i m making good progress on my dahlia cardigan although i do have to rip one of the sleeves out i didn t realize i had to start the decreases so soon so it ended up too long and not decreased enough i thought it might look ok like that but it doesn t and considering the price of this yarn i know i need to frog it and do it right i m on the second sleeve right now and once that is knit correctly i ll frog the other one and re do it posted by denise at 3 04 pm 4 comments labels drifty socks wednesday january 11 2012 yarn along 1 i thought i d join in with ginny s yarn along this week the two things i ve been doing most since christmas is knitting and reading i m now in two book clubs my main real one and a virtual online one with some friends this week i m reading cutting for stone with my real club we ll be discussing it at our first monthly meeting on january 19th i have to say this is not my kind of read at all so i m not really enjoying it but still plugging away at it it s over 600 pages long i m also reading a thomas kinkaide novel with my online club and i m really enjoying that one more my kind of read as i mentioned in my last post i cast on for a pair of socks so i had something small to knit while working on wray and dahlia i m using this pattern on ravelry they are called double knit oversocks even though i ve gone down two needle sizes the pattern calls for us6 and i m using us4 dpn s i still feel like it s a little loose i know i know i should check gauge and honestly this is the last time i don t i really will check my gauge with everything i knit from now on out promise i ve come to the conclusion that i have tiny feet well not tiny in length i m a size 7 7 12 but the width of my foot seems very small either that or i just knit really loose all of the socks i ve ever knit have felt loose and could in my opinion be a little smaller for a better snugger fit still one sock finished the key now is to cast on straight away for the second sock or i will be dealing with sss second sock syndrome and will end up with yet another lone sock yes i have others sitting in baskets waiting for it s partner i m waiting for a package from knitpicks this week i ordered a 16 needle so i can knit the sleeves of dahlia doing them on the dpn s is slow going and i keep getting ladders i m hoping i can knit them on the 16 for the most part before the decreases start i ve also ordered some sock yarn from them in cream i ve wanted to knit these socks for ages they re the lingerie socks from knitty com you can see them on ravelry here the picture is linked to the knitty site not sure if i ll make them or pick a different pattern i m also wanting to try toe up remember posted by denise at 11 54 am 3 comments labels socks yarn
