Here is my WWVD? shirt because I love her desperately.

Here she is! I used a bulky alpaca and cast on way less stitches than the pattern called for to make it less bulky. Please ignore weird bunching of camisole underneath!

A fast, lovely knit and I learned to cable without a needle! Oh, and I added quite a bit of length to the body as well...

Am considering buying this for Simply Marilyn but have read a couple of not-so-glowing reviews (ie that it pills terribly and looks dirty) and a couple of great ones. Not so sure what to do! Alternately, anyone know of good subs? thank you!

Anyone seen one anywhere?

I finished my Groovy Sweater Dress last night. I used 4 strands of Lion's Pride Worsted on the recommended needles and eliminated the pattern on the top. It tends to ride up a bit and get a little Empire-waisty but it's very comfy and VERY warm.

Here she is!




I couldn't bear the thought of using 10 different colours, so I stripped it down to just two. It was my first stranded project, and first steeking experience. I love it an awful lot...

My dog looks quite shocked by the whole thing.

No more knitting with a deadline! No more worrying if it will fit/they will like it! Getting to knit for myself!

I am looking for a cute cabled sweater pattern. I love Trellis and Starsky Jr - one's too small and the other too big. Is it easier for me to figure out how to biggen Trellis or how to smallen Starsky Jr.

Or doea anyone know anything similar for a 2 1/2 year old???

THANKS!!!

I am getting ready to put all my pieces together and just realized that I'd stupidly loaned out my SnB. Any hot tips???

What projects have you done that have made non-knitters ooh and ahh the most? I'm trying to figure out my Christmas knitting and am trying to come up with gifts with low-input and high-impact. Thanks!
