Mikado


And because I am lousy at blogging I managed to finish a sweater for Albert without a single post about the proces. So here it is. Mikado by Falkenberg. Way too big -but that's better than being too small!

I have another pile of squares too....I'll save those for another day.

Sexy vesty

Have been wanting to make a vest for a while. After ages at Ravelry I finally came across Sexy Vesty by Canaryknits. Also liked Orford from Rowan and Talia from knitty.com. The latter is a free pattern too. Migth make it next time but with a few modifucation. Like no buttons!

Still lots of flowers...

Though it is getting colder everything is still blooming like crazy!



Flowers and Leafs progress

The Flowers and Leafs Scarf is still growing. It's a fun knit that takes a little longer than usual due to the wrong side pattern. As the center and border repeats don't have the same number of rows I have had to chart almost every single row.
I am using Jaggerspun heather on 3 mm needles which seems to be quite appropriate. The yarn is very elastic and when not pinned out it looks a mess. Pinned out like this it's only sligthly messy :-). I am sure the wet blocking will do wonders.

Flowers and Leafs Scarf

With lots of Dahlias in the garden what is more obsious than to make a flower scarf?
Here's the beginning.


In a few days The Radiant Scarf will be published. I am just waiting for the receiver to get it ;-)

What happens if you forget the doug...

A mess!!

And eventually...

Lots of buns for the lunch box.
