Current and Finished Projects update

Above: This scarf is the Reynolds Rapture in dark teal. It took two and a half hanks to make this particular scarf (which I finished this morning, but have no pictures of yet). It measures approximately 5 feet 8 inches long.

Above: This scarf was made from the Rowan Cotton Tape in blue. The pattern was simple: CO an even number of stitches. Knit two - six rows (I chose two rows). Row 1: k1, *yo, k2tog (repeat from * until three stitches left) k2tog, K1. Row 2: Knit. Row 3: k2, *yo, k2tog (repeat from * until there are 4 stitches left), k2tog, k2. Row 4: Knit. Repeat rows 1-4 until reached desired length. Knit two - six rows. Bind off. The actual pattern can be found here: http://www.knittingonthenet.com/patterns/scarfdiageyelet.htm

Above: This is the start of a roll brim baby hat I am making for a friend. Doesn't look like much just yet!


Above: This is the baby blanket I started several months ago. It is being make out of the Sirdar Snowflake DK yarn, that is being double knit (knitting off two balls of yarn at the same time). That is approximately 25 rows of work. It's hard to see the k5, p5 pattern in it, but it is more noticeable when looking at the blanket. Thus far I have not finished the first two balls of yarn.


Above: This scarf is being made out of the Moda Dea Caché yarn (I believe the color is Siren, but I can't remember). The pattern can be found in an earlier post about a red scarf I made.


Above: This scarf is actually now finished. It was made from the Reynolds Rapture yarn in teal. Like the scarf above, this pattern can be found under a post for a red scarf I have done.

Above: This purple scarf is actually self striping (rather unintentionally I might add!). It is Sirdar Snuggly I believe (I know for a fact it is Sirdar yarn though), and it is SOOOOO soft. It is a very thin yarn, but can be knit either by itself (this is being knit on size 9 needles and is held tight enough to pass as it's own fabric) or as a "fun fur" type yarn.



Above: My second venture into dish/wash cloths. I knit this with the Blue Sky Organic Cotton. Tried it out in the shower today - not sure how well the cloth will hold up, but the pattern isn't bad.

I will be trying out some new patterns for cloths shortly, but I want to try to finish up the baby hat first. The rest of the projects can come in due time, most are for Christmas presents, as I have completed the items I was knitting for me.
