This topic should collect all the postings made on the individual product pages about items made with those yarns...

IF you post them from individual yarn pages your post will be linked to that yarn and show up on that page too, so please try and either match your post to the yarn or just add it here directly...

Estonian Scarf w/ 1/16 alpaca

2008年 11月 22日 土曜日 1:27:18 am

This is a scarf I knit from the Knitted Lace of Estonia book. Here's the specifics:
yarn doubled and twisted by Colourmart, knit w/ US4 needles. Total amount used was 55g and blocked out to 14.5in X 52in.
It was knit off the cone, soaked in hot water plus Dawn detergent, wrung out (gently), and blocked out.

This is some amazing yarn!

This is woven 100% DK done on a Kromski Harp, 10 dpi, even weave. It looked terrible on the loom, but washed up fluffy and warm. Classy looking.

Sunset shawl in 2/28 Nm silk

2008年 10月 25日 土曜日 1:41:35 am

This shawl was woven using a network drafted pattern on 24 shafts, with a 4-shaft rosepath initial instead of the traditional 4-shaft twill initial. The warp is 2/28 Nm silk hand-dyed in 29 colors gradually fading from turquoise to fuchsia (it looks like a smooth color progression but is in reality 29 stripes less than 1/2" wide!). The weft is a non-Colourmart cashmere that I found in a thrift shop for $0.99/lb (possibly the find of the century!).

I sett this shawl at 45 ends per inch, which was possibly a little too close as the pattern did not beat square and the warp had a tendency to stick. If I were doing it over again I would sett it at 40-42 epi, and/or use a thinner weft. The cashmere I used was about 5600 ypp according to my McMorran balance.

More photos of the shawl can be seen on my blog, at http://travelingtiger.com/blog/2008/10/24/black-cashmere-wet-finished/ .

My first weaving project

2008年 10月 23日 木曜日 9:08:06 pm

After getting a rigid heddle loom for my b-day in september, I finally assembled it and started my "Wrap of many greens" last week. It uses a lot of different yarns, among them Colourmart cash/silk, cashmere, and soft silk in different weights. The final wrap is not so large - approx. 55x150 cm ex. fringe - but I really like it.

needle size for swatches

2008年 10月 22日 水曜日 3:13:46 pm

Another way to remember the size needle used for a swatch is to tie knots in the yarn tail corresponding to the size needle used. A great help weeks later when those 5 knots tell you a size 5 needle was used.

heartland shawl with colourmart DK silk

2008年 10月 21日 火曜日 4:09:16 pm

a beautiful DK weight silk in a slightly slubby Chestnut colour - this is not a shiny silk but more like a raw silk with bits of other color to give it a tweedy appearance
I love the finished shawl -

When my cousin was recently diagnosed with cancer, I could think of nothing more comforting that a shawl in this wonderful cashmere/viscose.

Designs for baby Erin

2008年 10月 20日 月曜日 1:52:37 pm

Yet another friend has recently given birth to a little girl - born last Thursday. When I spoke to "mum-to-be" well before the event, she mentioned that she would like the pram throw to be in a pastel colour. The throw took 2 x 100g balls of 100% extra fine merino 10/30NM dk wt. Can't remember the name of the colourway but it was a peach to knit with. The main body was knitted on size 8/4mm needles with a crochet edge.

I then decided to add two hats - one for now until 3 months (Pink 60/40 Cashmere/Silk) and then the other 2/7NM DK 100% cashmere called Speckled Wine.

Thanks Barbara Re: Beverley's Danish traditional tie shawl

2008年 10月 13日 月曜日 2:17:44 pm

Thanks Barbara - glad you liked the design. I've today landed back from the States following S.O.A.R. (Spin Off Autumn Retreat)

I displayed this garment at the event in their Gallery and also received favourable comments there. It is extremely warm and most definitely was finished at the right time.

I even got interviewed during SOAR for last Friday's Daily Knitting Review channel! http://www.knittingdaily.com/blog...y/pages/soar-2008-photo-gallery.aspx
