Pattern: Neely O'Hara by Liz Abinante Yarn: Knitlob Lair's Väinämöinen in shade Tiili Needles: 1.5 mm HiyaHiya circulars |
Pehmeät, lämpimät ja kauniit asiat loiventavat elämän alamäkiä. Toistaiseksi parhaat sukkani syntyivät Liz Abinanten Neely O'Hara -ohjeella. Istuvuus on täydellinen, mallineule oli aivan mahtava ja koko urakka sujui kuin tanssi. Hyvä minä!
Soft, warm and pretty things are needed to even up the worst bumps of life. My best pair of socks ever were knitted according to the Neely O'Hara pattern by Liz Abinante. Perfect fit, great pattern and faultless performance in knitting. Well done me!
Pattern: Pretty Thing by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee Yarn: Cashmir Sock by Handu Needles: Chiagoo Red Lace circulars, size 3 |
Another quick knit is a small lace cowl named Pretty Things. I did not find the pattern to be as excellently written as I would have expected from a pattern that you have to pay for, but the result is quite lovely. It is such a shame that cowls of this kind sooner or later always loose their shape. A very pretty thing it is, however.
Pattern: Trillian from the Hitchhiker trilogy by Martina Behm Yarn: Alku by Woolgrey in shade Odysseus |
My Trillian shawl on the needles will be absolutely gorgeous, however. My yarn is Finnish Kainuu Grey produced and hand dyed by Woolgrey. I already knitted a pair of mitts from it; they are just super to cushion my counterstrike.
