I can’t tell you how ecstatic I am to have 2 1/2 more finished knits. Well, on to the first…

Pattern...Arisaig from Knitty
Yarn...Rowan 4 ply Soft in color #372
Needles...I can’t remember right now…but I always go down a needle size (Inox)
Size...Smallest
Mods...The only thing I changed are the sleeves. I casted on 8 sts less than called for. They were way to baggy for my liking. I wanted them fitted.
This is a fabulous sweater and a fun pattern. I love the way it fits and how very soft it feels next to the skin. This is fabulous yarn. My problem is figuring out what to wear underneath. Soooo very comfortable. I’m very happy with the final results.

Next up is...



This shows the pattern but the color is darker
Pattern...Indigo Ripples Skirt from the Spring IK 2007 (Kat Coyle is a genius & my hero)
Yarn...Rowan Denim in color #225 (Memphis)
Needles...Size US 1 and 2 Inox circulars
Mods...I knit the stockinette portion of the skirt longer (the lace is pretty see through) I knit the lace part longer also to make it just below the knee. Instead if an knitting an Icord for the belt, I knit a crochet chain with a double strand of yarn. I like it because it is flatter then the Icord and knits up much faster.
I am sooo in love with this skirt…everything about it. I love the color (the denim already faded some with the first wash). The fit is perfect and I love how stretchy and comfortable it is. It is flirty, sexy, but is also comfy. I love the fact that you can dress this skirt up with a cute top and nice heels or you can dress it down with a tank and flip flops and still looks great. This is the first skirt I have ever knit…but you can bet, it will NOT be the last. You can also be sure that I will be knitting with this fabulous yarn again. I have seen 3 of these fun skirts knitted up and they all look great on each body type.

Last one up is...

Well yes…only one is completed as I have been a very busy girl finishing other knitted jewels. I am about halfway through the second sock, although I am in no rush to finish it as the weather is getting warmer.

One last thing...

My babies. LOVE em!!!

I am soooo looking forward to the MD Sheep and Wool Festival this weekend. I can’t wait! Hope to see some of you there!

Have a fantastic day!
