chachaknits: Juneberry Triangle
http://chachaknits.blogspot.com/2012/06/juneberry-triangle.html
My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, and other yarn-related activities. Thursday, June 07, 2012. I finished a Juneberry Triangle for J's mom. She has spent quite a while hinting- not subtly, either- that she would love it if I were to knit her something. When I gave her the finished shawl, she looked at it and asked, "Is this something you made? I told her it was, and the reaction was priceless: "ALL RIGHT! And look, I even did all of the bobbles:. The ones on the edging too:. RoseByAny @-;- -.

chachaknits: Yarn Radar
http://chachaknits.blogspot.com/2011/05/yarn-radar.html
My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, and other yarn-related activities. Sunday, May 15, 2011. J and I were in Billings for a weekend trip a few weeks ago. While we were driving around, I found Purl Yarn Boutique. A brand new yarn store! J joked that I must have some kind of yarn radar. I have a tendency to find yarn any time we go out of town. J was drawn to the Manos display, and picked out this skein of Maxima in the Arctic colorway:. I can't get over how smooshy this stuff is! RoseByAny @-;- -.

chachaknits: New project: Whisper Cardigan
http://chachaknits.blogspot.com/2012/06/new-project-whisper-cardigan.html
My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, and other yarn-related activities. Sunday, June 24, 2012. New project: Whisper Cardigan. My second try at a Whisper Cardigan. The yarn is Madelinetosh Lace, and it's beautiful stuff. And I really hope this one goes better than my first Whisper, which ended with moths. or maybe spiders. something small that eats yarn.

chachaknits: May 2010
http://chachaknits.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, and other yarn-related activities. Thursday, May 27, 2010. I almost went with "Impasto Was Fast-o", but I couldn't bring myself to do it. I finished up Impasto and got it blocked this past Sunday:. It looks so complicated, and was so easy. I love projects like that. I'm loving all the brightly colored projects that are popping up on Ravelry, but I bet this pattern would also look gorgeous in shades of natural wool. Posted by chacha / Jen. Sunday, May 09, 2010.

chachaknits: Finished object: Windermere
http://chachaknits.blogspot.com/2011/08/finished-object-windermere.html
My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, and other yarn-related activities. Sunday, August 28, 2011. In the middle of my summer activities, I finished my Windermere scarf. The pattern is from Sweet Paprika. And is a design I've loved since I first saw it in the Ravelry Obscuriosity group's past knitalongs. I got this fabulous hand-dyed yarn from The Yarn Stash in Minot, and it turned out to be a great match for the pattern. Posted by chacha / Jen. August 28, 2011 2:14 PM. View my complete profile.

chachaknits: Starfish shawl
http://chachaknits.blogspot.com/2010/11/starfish-shawl.html
My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, and other yarn-related activities. Wednesday, November 03, 2010. My new shawl. Let me show you it:. I've had the Starfish Shawl pattern from Knitting Nature. The shawl has armholes to make it easier for those of us with narrow shoulders to actually keep it on. It can be worn with the longer end on the bottom:. Or with the longer end on top as an over-sized collar (which is probably how I'll wear it):. Posted by chacha / Jen. I love how the yarn looks!

chachaknits: February 2010
http://chachaknits.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
My adventures in knitting, spinning, dyeing, and other yarn-related activities. Friday, February 26, 2010. Ridiculously easy stockinette cowl. I cast on 90 stitches on size 7 needles, and just worked in stockinette stitch until I was happy with the length. And now I have a purple cowl to go with my purple winter coat and my purple purse. Posted by chacha / Jen. Sunday, February 14, 2010. To go on as scheduled! Happily, the Timonium Crowne Plaza hotel was not built on top of a giant captive space jellyfish.
