TDK: Hazelnut Dark Chocolate Truffles and Marshmallow in Dark Chocolate. Posted by Mary Jean. I am totally late for August TDK challenge. Theme was Candylicious, though I think Chocolicious might suit better ;) it was a good coincidence actually because when this challenge was first launched, I was in Europe and I could grab whatever chocolates I encountered there! In this case, it's Callebaut chocolate. Through the long recipe given in the forum, I also learnt how to temper chocolates at long last!

Molly's Knitting: December 2008
http://mollysknits.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 26, 2008. A New Knitting Book for Christmas. It's not quite right if one doesn't get a knitting book for Christmas. The one I got I actually picked out myself. Well actually, one could not possibly think that their husband could pick out a knitting book all by himself. The fun thing is that I had completely forgotten about the book, so it really was a surprise. I received Nicky Epstein's new book Knitting On Top of the World. Thursday, December 18, 2008. I settle on making a mitten that ...

Molly's Knitting: What on earth have I been up to!?
http://mollysknits.blogspot.com/2011/03/what-on-earth-have-i-been-up-to.html
Tuesday, March 1, 2011. What on earth have I been up to! I can't believe that I haven't posted on this site for 2 years! You'd think I'd given up knitting. Well I haven't . But I have been through a lot of troubles in the missing time, making me a bit dysfunctional. But not to worry - I'm still knitting. And I made a gorgeous purple vintage cardi for Emily, grand-daughter #1, with mittens to match. I've also made two pairs of mittens for myself, having lost my favorite pair. Free sock pattern links.

Molly's Knitting: December 2012
http://mollysknits.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 6, 2012. A New Formula I think will be very handy. That was knit at a tension of 13 stitches per 10 cm. The yarn for Emily's sweater has a tension of 20 stitches per 10 cm. Also, the sweater produced a 33 inch chest, and I think for Emily I would need a 24 inch chest on the sweater. So how to accommodate all the variables? After running this all around in my head, scrutinizing the patterns directions, I came up with a formula that I think just might work. If:. X = desired size. Row 2: ...

Molly's Knitting: August 2008
http://mollysknits.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 23, 2008. I have never completed an adult scarf. I find it sooooo tedious to knit one. But that doesn't mean I haven't started them, or that I don't intend to finish them. The first one of importance is an Alice Starmore scarf from In the Hebrides. And if I remember correctly, I was working on a scarf with a pattern that someone got from a lady in the Metro in Paris. I can't even remember what I was making it out of. But if I know me it was red. I LOVE RED. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Molly's Knitting: Starting a new sweater for Emily
http://mollysknits.blogspot.com/2008/10/starting-new-sweater-for-emily.html
Sunday, October 12, 2008. Starting a new sweater for Emily. Yarn - 4 ply or fingering - sock wool is fine, but anything that gets a 7-8 inches per inch tension. Needles needed to get that tension, two sizes - one for ribbing and one for the main knitting. For this sweater I'm using Sirdar Snuggly 4 ply - starlight. My needles are a 2.5 mm needles and 11 UK needles (3 mm I think). Neither of these have an American equivalent. Just get your tension right on whatever needles you have. With the 2.5 mm ne...
