Melissa Caldwell	Cashmere/Cotton Baby Hat 2007年 1月 08日月曜日 10:57:54 pm Here is a crocheted baby hat made with 2/28 cashmere cotton, using a G crochet hook (very loosely). It fluffed nicely and is very very soft. My own design, for a friend's premie baby boy. I made a blanket to go with it but forgot to get a picture before I gave it to her.
Kim McClearn	Pretty Petals cashmere socks 2007年 1月 08日月曜日 9:52:24 pm Yarn: 100% Cashmere 4 ply weight Needles: size 0 Pattern: Jeannie Townsend's Pretty Petals These were a Christmas gift for one of my many Sisters-in-law. I added a strand of woolly nylon to the entire foot.
Elizabeth Lovick	Baby cover-up 2007年 1月 07日日曜日 10:23:10 pm This baby's poncho was made with oddments of yarn. Some were aran weight already; others were made up to aran weight by using 2 strands of DK or 3 strands of fingering. I used 6 mm (US10) needles for most of it, with a tension of 4 sts per inch and about 7 rows to the inch. The poncho, which will fit a baby from about 6 to 18 months, weighs 260 g. Here it is on a 3 month sized doll - and is too big for it!!
yenju chen	Bookmark and swatching 2007年 1月 06日土曜日 11:46:42 pm I'm making a shawl from Victorian Lace Today using Richard's laceweight smooth silk, but I had to rip it twice due to the fabric looking too loose and sloppy. I decided to make little project swatches instead -- bookmarks. This is a bookmark using the lace pattern from VLT -- the Dolphin Lace scarf. This lace pattern allows me to check gauge and I end up with something useful too. On the right is one strand of silk (navy) knit with US2 Susan Bates, and the other is iris blue knit exactly the same, but with US3 needles--sloppy and sad, no? I'm finding that my favorite bamboo needles are too grabby and it's difficult to move along 100 plus stitches. The amount used for the bookmarks? That would be a sample's worth. Swatching? Priceless. specs: 100% silk laceweight single strand #2 US Susan Bates needles (metal) Cast-on 12 stitches pattern from p106 VLT sample amount used.
Melissa Caldwell	DK Cashmere/Merino Ribbed Hat 2007年 1月 06日土曜日 8:06:17 pm This hat was made with the DK weight cashmere/merino blend yarn in color aqua moon. It was hand knit on size 6 circular/double pointed needles. This yarn has more spring than the 100% cashmere yarns and seems to hold stitch definition well (of course both yarns are yummy). This pattern is my own design.
Gill Tyerman	Fingering weight sweater including hand dyed yarns. 2007年 1月 05日金曜日 12:29:02 pm This is a sweater in fingering weight cashmere. I hand dyed the turquoise yarn to produce a variegated effect - the original colour was pink. The background yarns are fingering weights, or combinations of laceweights to produce the same thickness. The sweater is based on the Kaffe Fasset Stone Circles design, and was knitted on 3.25mm needles with a tension of 24 stitches and 36 rows to 4 inches.
Hege Dietrichson	Kiri shawl 2007年 1月 04日木曜日 10:16:12 am I've finished my Kiri shawl, in 6/28 fingering cashmere, colour ruby, needle size 6. I got 13 leaves along the middle. It weighs 130 grams, so I realize now that I could have made another pattern repeat, but I chickened out and went for the safe solution.
Kristina Plaas	Another look 2007年 1月 04日木曜日 1:51:37 am Here's another look at the Hidcote Garden Shawl knit out of 2/28 laceweight cashmere in the aquamarine colorway. Here you get a sense of the loft of the shawl. beadntat aka Kristina in Knoxville, TN, USA www.beadntat.blogspot.com
Kristina Plaas	2/28 laceweight cashmere shawl 2007年 1月 04日木曜日 1:48:09 am I am knitting the Hidcote Garden Shawl from mimknits.com using US 5 needles and a single strand of Richard's 2/28 laceweight cashmere in the aquamarine colorway. The yarn is a lovely dusty aqua blue color and is lighter in real life than in my scans/pictures. I am knitting it off the cone so the yarn has not been washed yet. You can see the wonderful definition of the lace patterns making this yarn excellent for complex lace designs. beadntat aka Kristina in Knoxville, TN, USA www.beadntat.blogspot.com
Elizabeth Lovick モデレーター: Richard Lawn	Lace weight silk 2007年 1月 03日水曜日 10:54:22 am This is the peppermint lace weight silk wound to 3 strands by Richard to make it fingering weight. Needles were 3.5 mm (US 4). The swatch is playing for a sleeveless top and for a kurta-shaped long sleeved cover up. The swatch is very floppy and so the tops will drape well. Both the moss stitch edging (top left) and the 'holey' edging (centre) work well, and the holey edge works both when decreasing every other row (right) and when going straight (upper left). The tension over the stocking stitch is 7 st and 9 rows per inch. The lace motif (13 sts by 21 rows) measures 2.25 ins wide by 2.5 ins high. This post relates to the following product: Made with ColourMart yarns
Elizabeth Lovick	DK silk 2007年 1月 03日水曜日 10:47:06 am Swatch for a waiscoat, using 3.5 mm (US 4) needles. The holes and the bigger cable show up well, but small patterns are lost. Tension over stocking stitch is 5 sts and 9 rows to the inch.
Elizabeth Lovick	50/140 tex fingering weight yarn swatch 2007年 1月 02日火曜日 5:59:14 pm This is the swatch for a lacy shell. Knitted on 4.5 mm (US 7) needles. The colour is Brighton Rock.
Hege Dietrichson	Fingering weight gloves 2007年 1月 01日月曜日 8:26:02 pm These gloves are made from 50Tex/140Tex fingering weight cashmere. They weigh approximately 30 grams. UK needle size 3,5, 24 stitches/10cm.
Sally Holmes	Lace Scarf knit with high twist DK 2006年 12月 30日土曜日 3:27:52 pm This is a seaman's scarf in Dusty Candy DK. The lace part is a variation of Feather and Fan, done over four stitches instead of the usual six, on 4.5mm needles. The rib is 4x4 on 4mm needles. If I were to make another I'd drop another size for the rib. I usually knit loose and drop down one needle size to get gauge.
Melissa Caldwell	Bohus-inspired Toddler Cap 2006年 12月 29日金曜日 10:58:53 pm Here is another example of colorwork in 4-ply -- a child's hat using color stranded knitting inspired by the Bohus tradition, which uses purl and slip stitches along with two or more colors in a row. This was also knit circularly, but from the bottom up.
Melissa Caldwell	Anastasia's hat in 4-ply 2006年 12月 29日金曜日 10:53:48 pm I find these 4-ply yarns to be perfect for doing stranded colorwork in addition to lace. Here is a hat I designed and knit for my daughter Anastasia using various colors of 4-ply and incorporating both fair isle and lace designs. It was knit circularly from the top down.
Susan Sanders	Faina's Scarf made with Colourmart 85% braided Cashmere 2006年 12月 28日木曜日 9:53:20 pm This scarf was made with 85%/15% Cashmere/Nylon fingering weight. It took 1 1/2 skeins on a size US 6 needle. The yarn had been washed once when I received it and I rinsed it in hair conditioner water, then rolled it in a towel to get out as much of the water as possible and then laid it on the blocking board to dry.
Anne deVaux	Lace Shawl Knit with Colourmart Fingering weight Cashmere 2006年 12月 28日木曜日 9:32:57 pm My own pattern made with Colourmart fingering weight cashmere in "Blue Mack". The pattern was based on the "La Chatelaine" lace pattern from Barbra Walker's Fourth Treasury. The shawl was knit from the top down on size 6 needles. The bottom edge was knit with short rows to form the points. It is wonderfully soft and I love to wear it, getting all sorts of complements.
Anne deVaux	Cashmere Socks 2006年 12月 28日木曜日 9:26:59 pm Yarn: 100% Cashmere fingering weight "Darkest Blues" Needles: size 1 double point Pattern: my own using a mistake sitch rib These are for my husband and he absolutely loves them. They are size 13 and took a long long time.
Leslie Ehrlich	Samphire DK Scarf 2006年 12月 28日木曜日 9:20:14 pm DK scarf knit from 1 pre-washed skein of double-twisted samphire on size 7 needles. It measures 6" x 52", and is from a pattern on yarnloopie's blog; http://monika-freepatterns.blogspot.com. Although beautiful, it would have been tighter if I had bought a second skein and knit it on smaller needles. leslie kay ehrlich
