The Endpapers

Shelley — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 08:01:56 +0100

Well, the mystery knitting from my last post was the second of my Endpaper Mitts, originally started in 2007. I was impressed with how quickly it was going after I took that picture. In only two sittings I was finished the colour-work and on to the top ribbing. Unfortunately that was the first time I decided to check the mitt I was knitting against the one I finished three years ago. Guess ...

Evangeline: Back On (and Off) the Needles

Shelley — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 23:16:38 +0100

I finally put the nearly finished second Evangeline mitt onto my new needles today and knit the remaining six rows and thumb. I couldn't find my pattern and didn't want to print off a new one so I just kept checking what I was doing against the first mitt to make sure I was getting it right. I'm so happy to have these both finished and ready to wear but I feel they need a proper...

Evangeline: One Done, One Started

A tired puppy is a good puppy. We took Abby for a nice long walk after lunch today and she ended up sleeping most of the afternoon. I used it as a chance to work on some knitting. I'm now finished the first of the Evangline Mitts and two repeats into the second one.

I'm making a few modifications to the pattern. I added an extra repeat before the thumb so that my mitts wi...

Evangeline: Started

Shelley — Sun, 07 Dec 2008 20:26:10 +0100

This is the beginning of the Evangeline Mitts (Ravelry Link) that I'm doing as part of a knit-a-long with a few friends who have recently moved away. Katy came up with the idea; Liette set up a page for all of us to keep in touch, and Samera told us all about the lovely yarn shops she was finding at her temporary residence. I have been the great procrastinator in the group - I only woun...

Cabled Fingerless Mitts

Pattern: Cabled Fingerless by Kimberly Gintar
Yarn: Socks That Rock Heavyweight in Rose Quartz
Yardage: way less than 1 skein
Needles: 3.00 mm dpn's

I'm glad I swatched for these because I ended up dropping down an entire millimetre. They fit beautifully and are just right warmth-wize. I love the little braid running up the back an...

I actually made these up last weekend but didn’t get around

to photographing them until today. They were a lot of fun to make up. They go pretty quickly and you can try them on as yo...
