What We're Knitting/Crocheting



Let Go - cardi by Joji Locactelli (Leeanne)

Let-Go
  • A very easy to wear cardigan with comfortable shoulder lines, fun cables and a flattering subtle A-line in the body. Meant to be worn open. Knitted top down.
  • Juniper Moon Paragonia (382yds/skein) #114 Indigo
  • 4.0mm needles

Saturn's Rings Pullover by Adrienne Larsen (Diane)
  • Top-down, seamless, circular-yoke sweater shows how easy it is to achieve stunning results with simple techniques and stripes.
  • This sweater is worked by holding a strand of smooth lace yarn with a fuzzy mohair and silk yarn to create a soft, ethereal, and contemporary look.
  • The original pattern calls for a solid lace weight held with varying colours of Kid-Silk to create the stripes. Diane has chosen us to a variegated lace with a single colour of Kid-Silk. Makes for a very soft overall effect.
  • (2)Juniper Moon Findlay Dappled - Dockside #123
  • (5)Drops Kid-Silk - #07 Lt Steel Blue
  • 3.75mm needles (calls for 4.0mm but not to gauge for me)

Usonian shawl by Dee O'Keefe (Diane)

Usonian shawl
  • Usonian is a contemporary striped shawl with a striking combination of textured and lace stitch patterns.
  • The asymmetrical triangular shaping begins with just a few stitches which then flow into striations of eyelets, garter bands, striped ribbing, twisted stitches on reverse stockinette and a woven ribbons lace border.
  • Knitting this in MadelineTosh Tosh Merino Light. Beautiful yarn. Well written pattern.
  • (1)MadelineTosh Merino Light - Night Bloom #248
  • (1)MadelineTosh Merino Light - Silver Fox #65
  • 3.75mm circular needle
