The Worst

2017-12-14T07:51:00.000-08:00

I think I am the worst blogger. I will work on that. I am currently working on a tissue box cover. I got tired of fishing out the tissues when there was not enough tissues to hold them up. I will post a photo and the pattern, once I have written it.

Here it is Friday

2017-09-02T09:30:00.002-07:00

Well I finished the little sweater, well... sort of. I ran out of yarn, thought I had enough, DH is going to try and get me some more. Here is the Link for the pattern Baby Sweater No photo yet.. Will post as soon as I get it. This one is a simple drop sleeve made with Caron yarn.

Its a Monday afternoon

I am a terrible blogger, I have about 3 and I forget to post to them, I will try to do better. This is going to be my main Blog (unless I can find my original)

Anyway, I am working on a baby sweater with graphed sleeves, and a double neck band. It is still on my machine. As you can almost see. More to come, yes the pattern will be available to you.

I just realized that I made an error, with the first pattern, there is nothing wrong with it per say, but I wanted short sleeves, and I did long sleeves, the revised version is here: childs 26, childs 28 and childs 32. Now you have two for the same effort. The adults is a 3/4 sleeve

I can't believe it been almost a year since I last posted. Well, I have not done a whole lot of creating. I am slowly getting back into it. I am currently working on a late summer top, I call Summer Fun, you can find the adult size here, For the child size you can find it here. The schematic is below. I did not include the measurements on the schematics because it is for both sizes. It is form fitted waist, short sleeve with round (crew neck) with a long waistband. you can adjust to fit you preference,

I did not realize it has been a long time since I have posted. A lot has been going on. We lost our house to the bank and now we live with my father in law. We went from a 3 bedroom place to a 1 room area. So I am not knitting as much as I was. I am working on a baby blanket, done in strips and joined with eyelets. Similar to the one that came with the book. Yes I am doing a video of it and posting it on youtube Will share link when they are done. Will try to update at least once a month. Photos later.

2012-02-27T16:10:00.000-08:00

Sorry about missing January. what I have been working on is completing the DVD I have so now I have 8 volumes. I will up date my list shortly.

One of the DVD I did was re-purposing a sweater. Back in 2006 when I started with the Ultimate Sweater Machine. I made a pullover. I loved the color (a real pretty green) but when I got it done. The sleeves were too long and the collar was too wide, so I did not wear it too often.

I decided back in January to re-purpose it. So I took the sweater apart (I used Redheart Yarn) and re-knitted it doing it as a cardigan. I have worn the sweater more often in the past 3 weeks than I ever did since 2006. This is what it did look like, I will post a photo as soon as I locate it. Now it is a cardigan with a darker green trim and a shirt type collar.

Just a short note to let you know the I am still around, I am making mittens to go on my next DVD that I am creating, I am playing with my new garter bar from KrisKrafter, which is absolutely wonderful. can't say enough about it. It make decreasing so much easier, the tines do not move on you like the hand made ones do. Believe my I have made my share of homemade garter bars. the KrisKrafer does not even compare. I plan on a few short videos for youtube using the garter bar. So stay in touch. I will try and do the same.
