Mini socks

These were knit for a charity group organizing the knitting through Ravelry.

Mini socks: anti-war, not anti-troops

Resist dyed felt

Here are some photos of the one of the resist-dyed felt that I dyed after being inspired by taking a class with Chad Alice Hagen. My friend has a dye studio set up and she and I spent a day and each made two long scarves. This is one of them. I sold it recently. It is more jewel-toned than the photos show.

Another hat!

Fake Isle cap; saw one in Duluth... got the yarn and knit it!













Also, the lemur has raised money for charity, assuming the check is in the mail. Another lemur has been requested by someone I met in Duluth though I won't be getting to it any time soon...

Even more knitting

These photos of a Teddy that was given away.

Knitting update

Haven't posted in a long time. New projects.

Lemur (must sell for charity; to raise money for an orphanage in Madagascar)

More knitting

There is more knitting to show. Some of these are photos of items I made a few years ago, and some more recently. It is still difficult to deal with photos and there is a lot more to show that I don't have photos of yet.

A Hat!

I saw this pattern on Ravelry and bought it from the designer, CBKnits.

It is knit with Noro Iro and is my first use of cables. I really like the pattern.

I changed the top so that it isn't ribbed.

Starting a blog...

Am learning how to blog for another purpose and decided that I wanted to do some more things with photos, etc. than I can do on Flickr.... Right now dealing with photos is challenging .

• don't have a photo editor installed yet that lets me do all I want to do with photos easily


• have to FIND the files of photos of the knitting I want to show

The header photo.....Have been felting some knitting and it looked like a garden on the drying rack. Here is a more complete photo.

The photo below is more complete

and also shows scarves.

Polar bear is from Family Circle Easy Knitted Toys. Fish is an adaptation based on a FiberSpace pattern with experimentation to get scales going; tried it in two directions. Roses and leaves are part of the Nicky Epstein Rose Trellis bag pattern, which you can see in the background of the photo on right. All the leaves and maybe some of the roses and the bag need more felting.

The flower in the lower right of the photo above is a Noni pattern (but you can't see its hot pink center). The flower at the polar bear's foot is also a Noni flower. In the vertical photo, there is another Noni pattern flower hanging in the midst of the scarves.

The scarf on the left is on its way soon to its owner. The scarf to the right of the flower is made from Classic Elite Bangles, and is one of my favorite scarves. I have knit this scarf for 3 other people.
