Lady Eleanor

Lady Eleanor is finally finished, I started mid July, then let her rest for the most part of the fall but now she's done. And I love her! I used Noro Kureyon and 4.5 mm needles.
This wrap was the reason i bought "Scarf style" and I have not regretted it. Also there are so many other lovely projects in the book.

Ruffle Scarf

Finally!! I have finally completed a project in the book. I am too excited.

My 14 year old daughter wanted the Ruffle Scarf and I made it for her. This was a very quick knit for me and I love the softness of the RYC Cashsoft DK.

Here is a picture of the scarf and I also made the Knitting Daily Cecily Beanie to go with the scarf.

Without further ado:



The second picture is the true color. Happy Knitting

Midwest Moonlight


I have had Scarf Style for about a year and believe it or not, this is the first scarf I made from this lovely book. After I was about 40% of the way done, my husband expressed interest in this scarf so I accelerated its place in my queue--concentrating on it instead of making it third in line meant it got finished MUCH faster, although it still took quite awhile to finish.
He wanted the scarf to be wide and long, so I blocked it as much as I could, gaining about 4 inches in width (it's now about 13 inches wide) and about 10 inches in length, to 70 inches. The blocking gave it a pretty, more open look too. I'm quite pleased with the result and hope he is too!

My version of Misty Garden and Zigzag Stripes

IMG_2815_r1

Hi there,
I finally remembered to upload the pic of my version of Misty Garden. Instead of a mohair yarn, I've used Lana Grossa Mega Stoppino, which is a chunky type and multicolour. I will knit this pattern again, but next time I shall choose a lighter yarn.

Zigzag Stripes

This one, knitted with 3 skeins of Noro Cash Island, was a big success with my little sister :) I loved it too, knitting has been so much fun that I bought more Cash Island to make one for me.

Happy knitting holidays everyone :)
