Yarn: Lorna's Lace, Lion and Lamb, colorway Black Purl, 3 full skeins and smidge of skein 4.
Needles: Size 4, addi's turbos
Surprisingly fast knit, considering my other Clapotis blunders.
Spiral Rib Hat.
Yarn: From Rhinebeck, I need to check the label on this. Not quite 1 skien, what to do with the rest of it?
Size 6 addi's. Quick one day knit here!!
This is the big accomplishment of the Blizzard Season, or so I think. Not quite done but getting oh so close, and maybe why I am starting all these smallish projects, so I don't have do do the finishing. I personally think my finishing sucks, and hopefully by the time I get a little closer on this one it will improve. That and some of the directions have me a bit baffled, pick up and knit , do I pick up then, knit, as in pick up all the stitches to be picked up then knit them all? Or knit them as I pick them up which I have never done. Maybe I can wear it like this with only the shoulders seemed and the sleeves set in but not seemed. I actually think I am going to lay it out and block it before I do any more seeming. I am working on an endless belt for this thing now though. Then I can worry about picking up for the collar right? After I get some expert advice and all.
One last thing to show you.
Fetching revised. The exact pattern just cabled all the way up. I really like how they turned out, I only only wish they were a bit taller for the fingers, I even extended the pattern a bit there. I also promise to not wear them with the Clapotis.
