Knit Knat Knutz: Mitts by Request
http://knitknatknutz.blogspot.com/2011/02/mitts-by-request.html
Veyla" by Ysolda Teague, available in Whimsical Knits 2. Classic Elite Yarns Wool Bam Boo (50% wool/50% bamboo). True to form, Teague's pattern was elegant and thoughtful from beginning to end. I truly felt that I was creating a work of art. I took a risk and used a DK weight yarn in this pattern designed for a fingering weight yarn because the recipient wanted something thicker looking. It was a great deal of stress on the hands, but I hit gauge just fine. Negative ease to fit. I ended up ripping ou...

Knit Knat Knutz: An Oldie but Goodie

An Oldie but Goodie. Rusted Root," by Sarah Johnson, available on Ravelry for a $6 download. Misti Alpaca Pima Cotton and Silk (83% cotton/17% silk). Though I felt pretty daring and conceited while knitting a medium in this pattern, I think I could have gotten away with a small, or at least done more decreases to the waistline. Now that I've lost 63 pounds (! I have an Ingenue. Knit up to a 41" bust with a few extra inches of length; a Split-Neckline Cap-Sleeve Tee. March 23, 2011 at 1:08 PM. Famous the ...

After requesting a poncho in vague terms for several years (which I pretended not to hear.in fact, I shuddered just think of it) she returned from a trip to Taos with two heavenly skeins of sport weight merino. Great! Shall we make a socks? Not cool, wife.

Knit Knat Knutz: I'm All Traditish!
http://knitknatknutz.blogspot.com/2011/05/im-all-traditish.html
Swallowtail Shawl" by Evelyn A. Clark, available for free here. Malabrigo Lace (100% single-ply merino). I made real, live lace! It's worth it for the texture. I eventually switched up to a 5 on my Knit Picks harmony wood interchangeables, and the difference was PROFOUND. I guess lace of this sort just needs slick, big, and pointy. (hehehehe. I'm so mature.). I'm sending this to my very glamorous aunt-in-law who is currently undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. I really hope she likes it.

http://knitknatknutz.blogspot.com/2009/10/peek-boo.html
Pattern: "Split-Neckline Cap Sleeve Tee" by Stefanie Japel, available in Fitted Knits. Yarn: Knit Picks Shine Worsted (Marmalade and Butter Pecan). Needles: US7 circulars (worked entirely seamless and mostly in the round). Size: 42" bust, shown with zero ease. Mods: I didn't bind off the turned picot hem, but rather sewed down the live stitches the way EZ recommends in Knitting Without Tears. It knits up to EXACTLY the size the schematics (and basic algebra) imply.they just didn't imagine what a shap...
