This is the "To Dye For" sweater from the first Stitch 'n Bitch book. I finished all the knitting almost 2 years ago, this was the first sweater I ever knit, before my knitting classes, before everything. It was only waiting for seaming because I wasn't sure how to seam an open, airy mohair top. (With embroidery floss).
The side view (obviously). The back view.
This is the Snowflake Headband I did in my knitting class. It was my intro to Fair Isle, and actually the only piece of FI I've ever done. It was worked from the inside up and over the outside then back in again, in the round, so all it needed was the cast-on Kitchinered to the bind-off. Here's the inside. Ok, so my Kitchiner isn't flawless, you can tell where my seam is, but still a good job I think.
Last but not least, this house. This is a very special house. This is the house that Julie and Richard bought for their first home!! YAY! After spending the last year or so living in Brockville while looking for the "right" house in Ottawa, they finally found it. They've been married for 1 year and now have their house and are all set, and I'm so happy for them! I should have mentioned this earlier when I first knew about it, but I didn't but I am now. Congratulations guys!! (But don't think this means I'm going to throw the weekly poker game). |
You do amazing work! You should be proud of yourself. :) Your Secret Pal
