Mohair beret

2007年 10月 25日 木曜日 3:51:47 pm

Pix of the beret I have knitted with the first of the 1/2 heavy DK mohair I received about 3 hours ago. Beautiful stuff - not as all scratchy (as some mohairs can be) - and the colours are out of this world.

Knitted on 6 mm needles, it weighs 42 g.

Lacy ribs sweater

2007年 10月 10日 水曜日 4:26:54 pm

This was knitted using 350g of 2/7NM cashmere (size 42). Using 4mm needles, I achieved a gauge of 24 rows and 20sts over the lacy pattern. The inspiration for the pattern came from "Knitter's Stash" but the pattern itself was mine.

NATIONAL KNITTING WEEK 13TH - 21ST OCTOBER CHARITY KNITTING (USING COLOURMART'S YARNS)

2007年 10月 05日 金曜日 1:47:03 pm

I am a member of the Chiltern Spinners and Bucks Guild of Weavers, Spinners & Dyers.

My initial intention, after purchasing Scrap Set no. 85 was to make a number of baby garments. The set contained a wide variety of different coloured yarns from 1 ply to Arran knit. I took a number of baby hats with me, when demonstrating at craft shows and visitors – who hadn’t heard of Colourmart – just couldn’t stop “touching” them. As I seemed to be giving a number of these items away I decided that I would spend a couple of months knitting for good causes. Here I am (along with my “cuddly” friends) modelling some of the items which will be given to our Guild Chairperson’s local church as part of the "Shoe boxes for Romania Appeal". Following yet another call from me, Richard has been fantastic in donating a number of sample sheets for our guild who has always been active, when it comes to charity knitting. I will take these packs with me, at tomorrow’s Guild meeting and as part of the National Knitting Week (later this month) we will use these packs plus the remainder of my Scrap Set – believe you me these are not scraps! (to make more items for good causes) I’ll make sure to send you the photos. Thanks again Richard

I started this shawl on 8/6/07 and finished it 10/2/07 but I usually knit 6 or 7 lace projects at the same time and rotate them rather than knit exclusively on one project. The yarn is a solid color yarn and the pattern was originally for a doily/table cloth and is only 180 rows long. I knit it on larger needles with a bigger gage yarn for a small shawl which is 46 inches across. I wear it as a small shawl to cover the shoulders. Half of the rows are plain knit rows so it's not as difficult to knit as it looks. Glad you llike it! Here is a closer picture.

Jane,
How delicate, just beautiful. How long did it take you to knit? How will you use it? You said the color was Polka Dot, was it a variegated yarn? I am in aw.

Knit on 2.5 & 2.75 mm needles using Cashmere Silk 2/36 in Polka Dot. It's lovely, soft, has a nice sheen from the silk. Really lovely to knit with.

Thank you - I had loads left on the 150g of cashmere, which is 2300 yds, so you should have enough of the silk cashmere as both fine lace and lace seem to have 2500 yds or over. It will look fantastic!

Forest Path stole

2007年 10月 01日 月曜日 1:51:09 pm

Dawn, that is beautiful. I just ordered some cashmere silk for (possibly) the forest path stole. Did you use more than one cone of the cashmere, or was one sufficient? Did you knit it to the entire 82" length??

Forest Path Stole, using 2/28 cashmere.

2007年 10月 01日 月曜日 12:57:19 pm

Hi
I've finished this stole, and it's absolutely gorgeous! So light and floaty.
I have no idea how much yarn I've used, but the pattern calls for 3 hanks of sure alpace, at 875yds per hank, which means yardage is anywhere between 1800 and 2600 yds.

I knitted the cashmere off the cone, still oiled, so it wasn't the best knitting experience, but when washed it's just so soft and light.
I'm going to try the 3/28 next (loden) for another knitalong starting this week - Secret of the Stole.

I've a few more photos on my blog (here's one permalink: http://deesie.typepad.com/skein/2007/09/current-wips.html) and probably more if you care to search, as this has been on the needles for six months!

adding weight, yardage to FO's

2007年 10月 01日 月曜日 3:16:01 am

hi folks -

some beautiful projects have been posted in recent months, and it would be *so* helpful, not just to me, but most other knitters if you could post the finished weight (the easiest) and maybe the yardage, if you can figure it out. There is such a large range of weights and more importantly *blends* posted, that it would be wonderful to have guidelines when buying. For instance, 3 cones of a DK weight 100% cashmere should make a medium size, plain knit pullover, or even one with cables, but if it was a cashmere silk blend, you might need to go into a 4th cone, since silk is heavier by quite a bit than cashmere.

thank you all for posting your projects, and for taking this request into consideration!!!

Finished Project

2007年 10月 01日 月曜日 2:44:54 am

This was crocheted on a 4.00 mm hook. The body is double crochet the rest is a lacy open-work pattern. I washed it twice in warm water on a gentle cycle and laid it flat to block/dry. I'm very much looking forward to our first cold rainy day so I can wear it because even with the mostly open sleeves, it is still quite warm.

Cabled sweater in cashmere/silk aran weight

2007年 10月 01日 月曜日 12:08:12 am

The sweater posted by Gill Tyerman is stunning. Do you have the pattern source? If it was self designed would you be willing to e-mail me some general information on the names of the cables and print sources for the stitch pattens.

4ply weight smooth silk yarn

2007年 9月 30日 日曜日 6:07:23 pm

I swatched 4ply weight smooth silk yarn I got from you a little while ago. I am going to make a lacy sweater from an old magazine. I used size 1 (2.25 mm) needles and it came out to be perfect 28 stitches to 31 rows for 10 by 10 cm square after blocking. Just what the pattern calls for! I was really pleased to get the gauge from the first attempt. I am very loose knitter, so most people will need bigger size needles to get this gauge. The swatch was washed in hot water with a dish soap, then blocked. After drying it felf quite stiff, but some gentle shaking returned it to being nice and soft.

selbu mittens

2007年 9月 29日 土曜日 8:29:28 am

i made these with 2 strands of laceweight wound together to make 4ply yarn. i used size 0 needles, and the gauge is about 13.5 sts./in. post washing. i didnt think to measure the gauge before laundering them, but the before- and after- seems to be the same. i also wove in the yarn with each stitch so there arent any long floats. these mittens are SO soft! i love them, and i know that my sister will love them when she gets them for christmas.

sorry for the very large picture. i dont know how to fix it?
