Kath-a-pie Knits: Brown Sweater
http://kathapieknits.blogspot.com/2007/06/brown-sweater.html
A blog about knitting, and random musings, too. Tuesday, June 05, 2007. I knitted this sweater out of Rowan Wool Cotton, a favorite of mine, on size US 6 needles. The pattern is "Lift and Separate" from Big Girl Knits. This is a great book with larger sized patterns that are trendy and cute. The photo from the book shows the sweater detail better than my photo. I gave the sweater to my mom for awhile. It'll fit me this winter so I'm going to take it back.

Kath-a-pie Knits: Stripey Sweater
http://kathapieknits.blogspot.com/2007/08/stripey-sweater.html
A blog about knitting, and random musings, too. Monday, August 20, 2007. This sweater is made out of Brilla, a cotton blend. I got a bunch of balls of Brilla on sale, all different colors, and started knitting a broad striped scarf/stole thing. It turned into a long rectangle, so I folded it and seamed it into a poncho. The poncho weighed about 15 pounds, and it stretched every time I wore it, and the colors were too bright. Not good. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Kath-a-pie Knits: Lavender Sweater
http://kathapieknits.blogspot.com/2006/03/lavender-sweater.html
A blog about knitting, and random musings, too. Tuesday, March 28, 2006. The sleeve joins are funky, too. Sort of gappy. I hope this'll smooth out when I do the blocking. I did have fun doing some short rows at the bust to make it hang better in the front. We'll see how this turns out. It's a nifty technique that adds darts where you need them. Lastly, the sweater is currently too small, but it'll fit soon enough! Who do you think you are? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Kath-a-pie Knits: This sweater is killing me
http://kathapieknits.blogspot.com/2007/06/this-sweater-is-killing-me.html
A blog about knitting, and random musings, too. Tuesday, June 05, 2007. This sweater is killing me. So I got this great Rowan book called "Studio." It's just a few cool patterns, no photo on the cover. An interesting approach for a knitting book. I guess the Rowan brand is strong enough to carry it, though, because I shelled out $16 bucks for it and so did my friend Lisa. Seriously, there are six patterns in the whole book.

Kath-a-pie Knits: Cockers: Before and After
http://kathapieknits.blogspot.com/2007/08/cockers-before-and-after.html
A blog about knitting, and random musings, too. Monday, August 20, 2007. Cockers: Before and After. Here are my babies, Addie (buff) and Poppy (parti). The before is Poppy, who's three, and the after is Addie, who's 13. I've had Addie since she was six weeks old, and she's the dog of all dogs. She's super cranky and mean and playful and loving, all at the same time. She sleeps with me every night. She's totally deaf now, but still fairly spry. I love her, crotchetyness and all.

Kath-a-pie Knits: Sock Club
http://kathapieknits.blogspot.com/2007/09/sock-club.html
A blog about knitting, and random musings, too. Thursday, September 27, 2007. A family friend, Pat Harris, owns a knit shop in Tennessee, just north of Nashville. It's called The Neighborhood Knit Shop. The shop is sponsoring a sock club and I'm doing the blog (see the link in the sidebar). The first sock is a walking rib pattern, which is easy but it looks complicated, which is a double bonus as far as I'm concerned. Yarn is Schaffer Lana, knit on #4 circulars, Magic Loop method.

Kath-a-pie Knits: Trio Sweater
http://kathapieknits.blogspot.com/2007/08/trio-sweater.html
A blog about knitting, and random musings, too. Monday, August 20, 2007. This was one of the first sweaters I knitted. It's out of Tahki Trio, which is a yarn that changes textures and colors as it self-stripes. It's the same yarn I used for the white sweater (see a few posts below). The picture doesn't show the color all that well, it's much brighter in person. It's a little big now, but I still love it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. H is for Henry. My Nephew. Cutest!
