Pattern: Hermione Hearts Ron by Christy AylesworthYarn: Classic Elite MountainTop Vista in the Wolf colorwayNeedles: Size 3 circs and size 4 circs and DPNs Finally, I’ve made it all the way through this pattern!    Which I do really like, and will probably want to make again in a real sport weight yarn. I did

Ok, let’s try this again.    Here’s Hermoine Hearts Ron, take 2.    Well, maybe three.   There were two versions in the old yarn, but I suppose those were 1.0 and 1.5. Oddly enough, I had cast on the original version in the correct needle size, or so I thought, because I swear I used size 2

Pattern: Tinker by Wooly WormheadYarn: Classic Elite Renaissance in the Cardinal colorwayNeedles: Size 7 circs This pattern is great!    Super easy.   You’re just knitting a tube and grafting the ends together.    (It looks way better formed into hat shape.)     This may become my go to worsted baby hat pattern.

The Coffee Bean Cardi being a gift, I’ve also cast on a hat to go with it.   This is Tinker, by Wooly Wormhead, and I’m using more of the unending stash of Classic Elite Renaissance in Cardinal.   This should actually be the last large scale project I can do with that yarn.    After that, it’s

Pattern: Evenstar Shawl by Susan PandorfYarn: Knitpicks Gloss in the Sterling colorwayNeedles: Size 4 circs and DPNs Here’s Mary’s Evenstar shawl, which is blocking in my bedroom as we speak. I still adore the pattern, and the Gloss yarn is a heavenly to work with.    I really wish I had more excuses to made

If you were only reading my blog, it would seem that I haven’t been knitting for a while.   I actually have been – the Evenstar shawl has been taking up all my time.   But I’ve made one before, so regular updates just didn’t seem necessary. I actually finished it last week, knowing I’d need to

So on the heels of the Flicker socks, I finished off the Risata yarn with a few more hexipuffs.    The nice thing about these ones is they’re different than my regular color palette, so should lend some nice contrast. After that, I was a little bit of loose ends, because I was waiting for
