Project Spectrum


I decided to join this group as it sounded like a lot of fun, and since March was Red/Pink I am already making this capalet for my DD http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/kff-capelet.html

It worked right in. Tonight I pulled apart the matching hat I made on green loom (see picture in 3/10 entry) and redid it on the red kk loom. It was just a bit too big. So, that's one done.

I am also taking all the extra fun fur left over and making 6" x 6" squares that I am going to join together and make a slip pillow case cover for either a 12" x 12" pillow or 18" x 18", haven't decided if I'm going to trim it or not, but I want to knit in button holes so it can be removed for washing.

Just received....

I just received my wonder knitter spool and my bloom loom today in the mail. I'm going to try to make this Celtic Knot. http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/BK4K-0603003.html.


I finished my magic scarf, but it's not quite as stretchy as I would like. Doesn't really stretch over my shoulders. I had my 3yo son model it for some pictures!

A new 'knitter' in the family.....


Here's my son with his weaving loom that I got him so he could 'knit' with Mommy!

Yet another project.....

Since there's been all the talk about magic scarves lately, and the great one posted....I just had to make one, since it is suppose to be quick and easy I figure it won't derail me from my 'present' making for long. So far I have some wedding and Christmas presents planned!

Here's my scarf so far, I started this while the kids rode their 'bikes' outside today!
