Just some photos…
Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010A short post today to show you some neat projects:
First are these adorable hat and sweaters sets that Fran Krieger made for a seet of tiny triplets, who were born just a couple weeks ago and are doing fine. If you can’t tell, there were two boys and a girl!
Kris Hahn made this One-Row Lace Scarf in a single night, I think. Janet brought in a sample, made in Noro’s new yarn Aya, and the pattern, and Kris spotted it on her way out (“I’m just here for help, I’m not going to buy anything!” – famous last words) and came in wearing it two days later. Isn’t it pretty on her?
Chris Dreazen comes in with a new sweater every other week or so, I swear! This beautiful number she whipped up in Tahki’s Dove in no time. It’s hard to see the yoke detail in this photo, but it’s a very pretty and cozy-soft sweater.
Barbara Grevas came to a class in a sweater she made from Janet’s Top-Down Sweater class last fall. The fit is perfect and doesn’t it look just right for this cold winter?
Donna Guthrie is teaching this jacket class and made this version of the jacket for Pat Burkhart’s birthday. It’s good to be Donna’s friend! I hope Pat will come in and model it for us sometime soon. Isn’t it gorgeous?!!
Here is a detail of the stitch pattern and cable:
Such lovely things! All I want to do is knit (or crochet – I’ve started on the simplest of summer sweaters in a fingering weight hand-dyed cotton and so far it’s fun and hasn’t made my wrist ache, so I should be able to brag sometime soon – I do brag about crochet, because I’m not so great at it – it’s an accomplishment if/when I finish something.)
Many of you know Donna Howard, who lost her mother this past week. Donna is also recovering from a broken wrist, so she has many things to bear right now, and without the comfort and contemplation that knitting provides. My deepest sympathy, Donna.
Have a great week, everyone. See you soon…
