My projects over the past year have included the following - in no particular order...
Jaywalker socks - Made from delicious wool that a dear friend sent me for a sock wool swap. Made with Striped Turtle Toes by Turtle Purl Yarns. I love, love, love them! |
Mitaines Rainbow - Made with a custom dyed set from Let Them Knit. Someone ordered the set to be dyed for them and never collected the order, so I snapped it up. I also love these! |
My first shawl ever - Travelling Woman. Beautiful, squidgy wool from Great Gradients. So warm on cold days (like today!) |
Christmas baubles, made for my students' Christmas presents last year. Made with scraps and leftovers of wool I had lying around. |
Another gift of love - for a wee baby girl of a good friend. Monkey Pattern from Sarah Keen's Book. |
My most recent project - a present for a dear friend's belated birthday present. Autumnal Mitts made with Skeinz merino. |

Very lovely projects, all of them! Nice to see you blogging again. :-)
Thank you! I've missed it and missed you! I have so much blogging and reading to catch up on. :)
Hi, your Autumnal Mitts look great! I want to knit these but don't want to use the Magic Loop method. I just want to knit around with DPNs. Do you know how to modify the instructions? I haven't received any response yet from the pattern designer on Ravelry, and I thought you might know how to interpret the pattern for me. Thank you. Marie
Hi Marie,
Thank you! I think I used DPNs as well (if I remember correctly...) I think I kept the lace pattern on one needle and divided the remaining 20 stitches between two DPNs. The thumb gusset was worked on the third needle. :)
Hope this helps!
If not, flick me a message on Ravelry (I'll link my projects on the blog) and we can figure it out together!
Cheers,
Tez
Thank you!
