Knitting at Night

Disentangled Yoke!

nobody@vox.com(Angelique) — Wed, 21 May 2008 20:39:33 -0500

I completed my version of the Tangled Yoke cardigan on my birthday weekend. In a genius stroke of rationalization, I decided I wasn't much of a cables girl anyway (wink, wink). So I opted for a simple lace panel--Eyelet V's. For anyone intereste...

Dragging on and on, this sweater...

After much focused, earnest effort at knitting the cable section of the Tangled Yoke cardigan I took a hard look at what a mess the whole thing was becoming, then took a hard right & high-tailed it out of Dodge. Those cables can suck it, seriously...

Endless orange

Quite negligent on the updates, but that's me. I am almost to the yoke of the Tangled Yoke cardigan. The sleeves have been dragging on forever especially after having taken a little baby blanket break: The sleeves I am doing on two circulars, and...

Milestone?

I finished my first pair of socks, and so now I'm pretty much assured of success in all my knitting adventures. I wish I had the recipient's feet to model these. They'd look silly on me... I think I may be confused about what constitutes a magic...

On a roll...

But still no sweater in sight. It was a fruitful vacation, though in truth I took very little time off from work. I just spent the holidays sequestered with DVDs and various knitting projects, chief among them a pair of socks on a magic loop. Oh h...

Let's be honest ...

I have attempted and not succeeded in knitting four (4!) sweaters in the past year. What I have finished is eight hats, two scarves, and a handful of dishcloths. Yay for me, but for all my ambition I am tiny bit down on my inability to see my big ...

Needles a-flying

While I can't say that I've made much headway on this year's gifts, I certainly have been productive in the knitting sense. Four pieces of head wear (not all pictured), half a shrug and a sweater also half done just in the past couple of months--...

A brief diversion

A baby hat ... ... made from the same yarn as the ol' Calorimetry. Super soft! Knit in the round on size 8 DPNs, 2x2 rib. I cast on 64 stitches and knit rather loosely until it looked to be a good size for a little guy. I love this yarn -- it bo...

Movin' right along ...

... diggi-dun diggi-dun, footloose and fancy freeeee ... Making good progress on the cardigan, 7 inches or so into the back panel. I think I deserve some Americone Dream! I love the vertical eyelet lace. The stretch is awesome. I modified the...

And we're off ...

I haven't finished my pink raglan yet, but ever since I got the idea of making a lace cardigan in my head I can't stop thinking about it. So I figured it doesn't hurt to have two projects going at once. I can bounce back and forth between the easy...
