Latest Commission

Last December I was commissioned to knit a black neckwarmer for a customer who saw and admired DH's neckwarmer I had blogged about (https://mybloggers.com/nittineedles/warm_neckcold_feet.html).



Then my customer asked for a teal cowl she needed for a gift.



I had some yarn left over so I knit matching fingerless mitts as a thank you.



The colours in the first two photos are true.

Gloves are a hassle, fingerless mitts would be nice. I love the teal color.

I have knit one sweater in my life, with instruction from a friend on how to augment and reduce. I have forgotten everything. I am still recovering from the effort. I can't find the sweater but I know it's in the house somewhere.

I have a few sweaters that have disappeared. They don't have legs but they can drag themselves around by their sleeves.

Isn't it amazing how the colors can change in a photograph? I'm struggling with my current cardigan, trying to get the shaping/rows/increases/decreases to come out like the directions and have the front left match the front right. Lots of ripping and counting rows. I know it's not a matter of life and death that they be perfect, but I don't want it to be totally out of whack. Wish me luck.

I've been knitting the front and back of my Country Celtic Cable vest simultaneously to make sure they come out even. Good luck with your sweater.
