She is also currently making a sweater out of Colinette's Art. It is a gorgeous new addition to our worsted weight yarn! The sweater is a bit of a mystery because the free pattern from Colinette has no picture, but so far it looks to be a stockinette sweater with purl ridges interspersed. The colors are gorgeous, just see for yourself!
If you love sock yarn but are tired of knitting socks, you can get inspired by mom's half pi shawl out of Schaefer's Anne. It's turning out really well and would be the perfect thing to wrap around your neck as the weather gets colder! You can buy the pattern at ravelry and get started now!
Ok, let's admit it, we all have a huge stash that needs to be shrunk every now and then. Mom is shrinking her sock yarn stash by knitting a star shaped blanket out of Knitter's at Home:Cottage, Condo, Cave or Castle. Now this pattern isn't posted on ravelry yet, so you'll have to come in to check out both the book and the beginnings of her blanket.
The holidays are getting closer and closer and no matter how much we all plan, there always seems to be at least one person we find ourselves scrounging to knit a gift for. Artful Yarn's Vineyard is your solution! There is a pattern on the back of this bulky yarn for a pair of fingerless mitts that need only one skein of yarn! Maureen worked these up for us and they are perfect to give, even if it's just to yourself!
Maureen is also working on a scarf kit with a zig-zag lace pattern! Simple but elegant, this scarf would be great with a warm winter coat or to dress up any outfit! It would be the perfect first step into lace!
Ok, I know that was a lot of stuff and I'm sure I still managed to forget some projects but that's it for now. If you're interested in what I may have forgotten, you'll just have to stop in! We set up the electric woodstove and are ready for some chilly days spent knitting around the faux flames!
