After a wonderful Holiday Season with family and friends, I am back in action and ready to share some new knitting!
Last year, I did some design work for
Nature's Luxury and now I can share it with you! These mittens and leg cuffs are knit with
Foxen Sheep from Nature's Luxury. This yarn is truly a unique wool in a beautiful array of colors. Clara Parks did a fantastic review of this yarn, which is worth the
read.
The pattern can be found for sale
here and there is also a kit that can be purchased with the yarn
here.
Happy Knitting and Happy New Year!

I have a new published design
out with Classic Elite for fall and here it is!
Winter Rose
Pattern:
Classic Elite Yarns, #9152 Snow Angels, Winter Rose
Yarn: Classic Elite Yarns
Fresco, 1 sk each #5349 Blue Teal #5353 Strawberry
Needles: US 2.5 & 3 (3.00 mm & 3.25 mm)
Here is some more detail of the colorwork. I had so much fun making this hat. M
calls it the tooth! Thank you mancake.
Finally, I have something to share that is finished. This is one of my projects
that was languishing, but I did not show because it was ready to be blocked. I
am in love with this and I think it will cross over nicely to the fall season
as well, with a nice long sleeve shirt underneath. I love the blend of the
alpaca and the linen in this yarn. It was one of those yarns that just
surprised me when I started knitting with it. It is really great in the hand.

I have a dress that I just love and I wanted something to keep me a little warm when wearing it.
The Dress
Skunk Funk
I love this dress because it has zippers all over it
and you can customize it to fit you just the way you want. I also just think it
is cool.
I searched high and low for something that I thought would look good with this
unique dress and once I saw the newest color of Classic Elite's Sprout yarn, I
knew I wanted to knit my Green Point Wrap in #4332 Vivid Fuchsia from the Classic Elite book, #9141 Seaside.
My Vivid Fushia Point
I love the way it turned out
in this color and as soon as it was done, I realized that I had a bunch of
items in my closet to wear with it. Bonus!
Coming soon to the blahg:
Languishing- A visit with all the knits on the needles that are languishing.
Collecting- A visit with something that I have started collecting and plan on
continuing to collect.
Ebook Snippets- Sneak peaks of one kind or another from my upcoming Malabrigo Freelance Project Ebook, which will be debuting in October!
