Sharon Air - Week 1

Hello on this Asian Fish Cakes Tuesday!

I was very surprised to realize, at the end of Section Three, that the Sharon Air MKAL pattern called for going back and repeating Sections 1-3 two more times!  This is a new one in my experience with Casapinka :)

Here's what things look like after two full repeats and one partial:


At least I think this is the ultimate shape for this part - but you never know!  So far it's been great fun and a joy to knit with this beautiful Miss Babs yarn and Casapinka's awesome pattern!

Other projects continue along in the background, including one large visit to the frog pond.  My first pass on this got way messed up somehow, but the second time was nearly perfect (and just had to adjust for one extra stitch on one side - a bonus compared with the alternative!).  

In other news - it's been so hot and dry that the wildlife have been hiding out, likely back in the woods where there's more shade and probably water too!

Stay well and safe!

Colorful Booties and Socks

Image
It is the Year of Colorwork, but mostly what I've done so far is produce a few color ful items!  I've been making this baby bootie pattern for years, mostly from leftover sock yarns.  This particular yarn is what remained from last fall's Flamewalker Socks .  That these booties stand up all by their jaunty selves makes them particularly appealing. These are  Crazy For You socks.  They haven't told me yet exactly whom they are crazy for , but I'll let them ponder that for a while.  It appears I may have caught a bit of Knitting New England's Tangerine Tango  with all of these orangey colors!

Wingspan, Part I

Image
I have two skeins of Classic Elite Alpaca Sox yarn that absolutely refuse to become socks. They pool, they gap, they otherwise cry and carry on in all sorts of ways. So, they are becoming Wingspans instead. I finished the first one last night, and cast on the second one this morning. They are, indeed, a pleasurable and addictive knit!

I've been busy, but I don't have much to show for it - yet. You will be seeing a lot of finished lace in the coming days, so stay tuned! In the meantime, here are two pillows that I dyed and knit for friends who are getting married next week.
