FO Copy Cat Cowl (Handspun) YOP #2

https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=1LNGg-SAqMrB3ycqYw7iy5fZN46BWBK3S
I love the Copy Cat Cowl pattern for handspun yarn.  It always looks amazing and is fun to knit. I think this might be the third one I’ve done in this pattern.  The yarn was scrappies from Funky Carolina.  I miss her roving so much!  Anyone know what she is up to?  Now onto the next project - drop stitch scarf.  I hate knitting scarfs - but I think it will be amazing!

    Yay! For getting this finished up some quickly. I miss her fiber too. I haven’t heard anything about her in years. I think she went to ground when her biz went under. :(

    Well you are off to a flying start with a finished object already. Was the yarn dyed to look like scrap yarns or do you mean they were scraps of different coloured yarns from that dyer. Either way it looks lovely and the colours suit the pretty model.

    Love the FO! You're really off to a great start this YOP year!
    Scarf knitting sometimes does feel like the project will never end!! I can't wait to see how your scarf works up.

Bowls With Boarders!

There is this great blog hop that I joined. It is called bowls with boarders. Regina came up with this great paper piece pattern - which I used to stack them this high.  Please check out all the other bowls for today! Birgit H. Vicki B. Monika G. Scher (no post) Dorothea Rosa Patch.The Love Of Sewing Nuclear Knits Cottage-Quilt Cattinka Hill Valley Quilter Ninis Patchwork   I wanted a table runner but didn't want to keep stacking bowls - so I decided to take my favorite fabric and use it on the other half. After that I decided my love of hexagons had to come out as well.  This was an incredibly fun project!  You should check out the rest of the bowls on the site.  So impressive!

F.O. Stupidly Simple Shawl

Image
I love putting FO in the subject line. Makes me feel like I've done something good! Project Details: Started on March 6th and finished on June 5th. Longer than one would think - but this was the car or doctor's office project. Not something I worked on all the time. I used 6 skeins of Bristol Yarn Gallery Buckingham Fingering alpaca yarn held together. Well I held two strands together (not all 6 at one time). This gave me the weight I wanted and it still drapes well I think. The pattern is really only 2 sentences long. I used size 7 needles and didn't change anything from the pattern. It was really a fun project!

When Crafting Goes Bad Part II

Well I did it again. No I didn't cut my finger with the rotary blade - but I might as well have. In an attempt to get my big spinning wheel working I was testing out some fiber - when all of a sudden the whole flyer and bobbin came off and slammed into my big toes. I'm pretty sure it is broken or really badly bruised. I've been icing it and it hurts to walk. Again the hubby wonders why hobbies are so violent! Ps - I know I have ugly toes...get over it, they are feet!
