Let’s have some more of that, shall we?
While I was distracting you with the fetching orange striped mitts, the hat decided to get bigger. Quite a bit bigger actually... So big that I may only have room for five colors (the set comes with six, and I'd hoped to have room for them all, but that may [...]
Unwavering
So it seems I couldn't stop with just the hat, I needed some cuffs too. They're called Unwavering, they're out now, and you can them get 10% off with the code STEADFAST (but read on, because if you want the matching hat, you can do something cooler). I like this [...]
Not even pretending any more
That's it. I'm just accepting that gray hats are my thing, I love them, I knit a lot of them, I'm not sorry, and I'm not going to change. That said...there's a good chance this one might distract you from the underlying gray with rather a lot of colorful bits...(it's [...]
Up Next
Mitts really are quick. Quick and more fun than they should be. Which is good, because I have a whole lot of them...though somehow that never stops me from wanting more. Oh and don't worry...it does this on the needles, but it behaves perfectly when it's blocked and on your [...]
Outsides
Fetching though the insides are, I will admit to loving the outside more than I should. The stripe is just perfect (and yes, yes it does go rather nicely with last week's hat, this is not an accident). And the thumb increases are deeply, deeply satisfying. It's probably indecorous to [...]
Insides
Remember how I was smitten with the outside of the cuff increases? Well the inside is also oddly charming. Same with the inside of the stripe. Now, I don't think it's necessarily practical to actually think of these as reversible (I can't think of a suitably hidden way to weave [...]
Detachable Pompoms
Remember how I said I'd sorted out a clever way to do detachable pompoms? And how I said it was all in hideous detail in the Wavering pattern, but we'd do a quick rundown here? Yeah, how about we do that! So, you're going to need one tiny extra gizmo [...]
Wavering (plus giveaway)
So it seems I'm not alone in either my love for this stripe, or for the ridiculously adorable pompom. Which is reassuring if I'm being honest! If you've been waiting for it, Wavering is out on ravelry now (and you can get 10% off with the code FLUCTUATION). I fully [...]
Short attention span
So I'm knitting swatches. A whole pile of swatches. And they're not even going to get turned into things (or rather, the swatch is the the thing for this one), and it's a very very very odd experience. But it is awfully close to instant gratification!
Tidy
You know me. You know I love a tidy thumb gusset. And this? This is astonishingly tidy. I mean it's not hard. It's not even fiddly. It's just...it's just splendid. I'm actually sort of in love with my whole thumb plan for these. And honestly, it looks just as good [...]
