Another cowl of the design I am working on for gifts. The cowl would normally get a steam press just to help open up all that lacework, but since the fuzzy mohair is knitted in I decided against it.
There are three yarns held together for this blue cowl, yarns from this post here.
I also am reworking these…
Tartan & Tweed Mitts which I am busy making several different ones so that in the new year I will be updating the pattern to include more weights of yarn and size ranges. These are made from some Cascade Sport Superwash which was gift yarn from Carol (hello & thank you Carol… xx 🙂 )
Oh , the joys of hand-made gifts. I can never get over it… the high I feel when I am finished with yet another. The pile is growing quite a bit, and thankfully I still have 12 days to make. Everyone, how are you doing with your hand-made gifts?
Divine….angelic soft. Lovely.
Hello Sorcha ! I am just now doing the post-finish hot cocoa with marshmallows in a pint glass…while cleaning up the mess of snipped yarns and such… bracing myself for another. Hmmm… I think another pair of T&T mitts. 🙂 xx
Marshmallows in hot cocoa?!……I’ll be there in 2 minutes!!
Do ! 🙂
Love those gloves!
Thank you Liz ! 🙂 xx
Love the gloves. I s there a shirt-making project in the offing?
Lizzi, I hope so, but it may be very belated at this point….
Look how pretty you made the yarn look! Your color and design sense is marvelous.
Hello Carol, I think of you often and hope you are well and knitting everything there is to be knit ! 🙂 xx
Can you kindly tell me yarn colours for the gloves or us that cheeky?
Hi Liz! Not at all cheeky…lol ! Well…I rather wound them off the skein ages ago, but now looking the Cascade page for this yarn http://www.cascadeyarns.com/cascade-220SWSport.asp
I think for sure one is Alaska Sky, and one is Mint, but I don’t recognise the light teal color in the shades. ::oops:: I hope that helps a little?
Hmmm… I think the third color may be turquoise. Alaska sky being what is the lightest and the ribbing, Mint being the light blue background alternating with a teal (turquoise?) The colors are more greenish blue than the photo shows.
Thank you. I’ll take a look.
