1) Some Cloudy Day Legwarmers
Drive by baby!!! |
with slouch |
"where the green grass of morning, soft-sprinkled with dew, would tickle my toes as I would go running through." (Linda Van Tassel) |
Yarn: Berocco Vintage DK
Pattern: Some Cloudy Day
Mods/notes: This is the second pair I have made. I cast on only 54 stitches, and used a regular chain bind off instead of Jeny's surprisingly stretchy bind off because the last pair was too big. These seem to fit very well, so far, but I may still add elastic to the ribbing if they stretch with wear.
2) Holden Shawlette

Post-blocking ^_^ |
Yarn: Knit One Crochet Too Crock-O-Dye
Pattern: Holden Shawlette
Mods/notes: Didn't have enough yarn to do 2 repeats plus 6 rows. I stopped at row 30. This was a very fast knit: I cast on February 28th and finished it in the morning of March 1st. I did knit deeeeeeep into the night on the 29th, though. I told myself "This is the only opportunity to knit lace: when the baby is asleep. Must....keep....knitting..." and nearly finished but for 2 rows!
So that's me for this week.
Check out more FO's with Tamis Amis ^_^ omg she finished the sweater !!!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful knits. I love the Holden, I did that one too. You are right, that was a fast knit! Love the drive by.
ReplyDeleteLove the leg warmers! drive-by baby is cute too.. :-)
ReplyDeleteCute legwarmers - they look toasty warm. I also like the look of your Holden Shawlette. Maybe I should look at that pattern as I often find lace projects interminable and tiresome as the rows get longer and longer and longer!
ReplyDeleteLove your holden! That was my first lace, and I will definitely go back to it soon!
ReplyDeletethe legwarmers are great! such a pretty color!
Oooh, both are terrific. What nice legs you have! : )
ReplyDeleteOo pretty Holden. And the legwarmers looked awesome. I started it a while ago but it's now hibernating :(. I guess I should dig it up and try again!
ReplyDeleteThose legwarmers are YUMMY! Love the Holden too!

ReplyDeleteThose leg warmers look fabulous - great job! I've been thinking about doing the Holden shawlette for awhile. Yours turned out great and I love the color!
ReplyDeleteThose legwarmers are killer! So are the legs underneath ;-)
