Finished objects:

 

Camp Wilkerson Shawl by Caitlin Hunter. Actually turned out to be a camp wilkerson cowl. I ran out of the last color for the finished edge so I decided to mattress stitch the chevron together to make a large cowl. I love how it turned out. So big and cozy!! I used Sweetgeorgia Dk in Glacier, Mink, Silver and Pumpkin. I skein of each and used a US size 6 knitting needle.

 

Carroll Park by Lynn Di Cristina. Worsted weight shawl done on US Size 9 needles. Yarn is Dragynknyts Wyvern base. One skein 470yds. Blue green color. (unsure of real name of color as I lost the ball band 🙁 ) Made as a gift for someone I shall not mention just in case she watches.

 

WIPS:

 

Kandahar socks by Alice Yu. Yarn is Art Yarns Frost Flower color. I am still working on these I did a few rows, so nothing really exciting to show.

 

Knitting machine progress. I opened the box and watched the video and tried using it. Having a bit of difficulty though. I don’t have the right table. The carriage was very stiff and it drops the same two stitches each time. Very frustrating but I am still working on figuring it out.

 

Granny Stripe Blanket:

 

Crochet blanket using Size G hook and leftover sock yarn held double. Chained 221 to start. Following @dreamsinfiber her template

 

Design shawl: Using Malabrigo Yarn Rios English Rose Color. Worsted weight shawl following the template for the triangle format and adding my own design.

 

Acquisitions:

Shibui Silk Cloud. Color Pool 25gm 330 yds lace weight 60% kid mohair and 40% silk
