Pattern: Ball Band Warshcloth from Mason-Dixon knitting
Yarn: Peaches n Cream (cone of blue variegated I inherited from my mom)
Needles: US 7
Dates: March 2007
Comments: Not a bad pattern at all - I understand why so many people make these washcloths! It kept my interest without being too complicated, and was nice watching-Bunchkin knitting. The cloth tightened up nicely after it was knit. I'll admit I haven't actually used it on a dish yet, but I will, honest!
Pattern: My own, but used Knitty's Fetching as a jumping-off point.
Yarn: Rowan Wool Cotton - 1 skein
Needles: US 4
Date Completed: March 25, 2007
Comments: I made this fingerless mittens for my upstairs neighbor; she loves owls and the color orange. The yarn was leftover from a baby sweater I made for Bunchkin.
CO 56 stitches, rib pattern is k8, p2, k2, p2, doing the owl cable on the k8 portions. I used an afterthought thumb (no gusset) and the Elizabeth Zimmerman sewn bind-off.
These ended up taking a couple of weeks due to limited knitting time, but I'm very happy with how they turned out. And this yarn is really nice and soft. I can't wait to give to our neighbor!
Pattern: Hooded Kaftan by Debbie Bliss, size 6-12 months
Yarn: Rowan Wool Cotton 4(?) skeins
Needles: US 3 and 5
Gauge: 22st/4"
Dates: ?? - March 9, 2007
Comments: I modified this pattern so most of it was knit in the round (I hate seams!). It got a little tricky when doing the final seaming, but I think it all went together correctly. I also decided to forgo the embroidery shown on the original.
This yarn was picked up on sale, and I loved it - very soft, not splitty, feels warm.
