It will be another skirt

This yarn was intended to be a wrap skirt. But during the work and despite the changes I made, I was disappointed with the result.

So I unraveled it. And it feels good!

This lovely highland wool from Peru will be something else.

 

But I want a warm knitted skirt so

now I'm making this one.

 

 

River, design Kim Hargreaves

 

 

Lima from Rowan

 

 

The yarn is in baby alpaca and merino wool.

Wonderfully soft!

 

The shade is 893, Argentina.

 

Waves Wrap

It's wonderful, my shawl in waves!

Crocheted in mohair yarns and by choosing the colors

one by one. 

 

 

The pattern makes me think of Missoni.

 

 

The pattern is from a swedish crochet book, 'Virka mera' though I made some changes. You find the technique in any crochet book I think. It's crocheted in thin mohair yarn (about 200m/25g) with two strands held together using crochet hook 5 mm.

Moreover I choosed to make it longer and to leave out the fringe. It's about 210 x 40 cm, I casted on 304 st.

 

It will keep me warm falls and winters to come!

 

Stylish Cardigan

I have quite a lot of magazines and books about knitting

and other needlework.

To spend an hour or two in my 'library' is one of my pleasures.

I've been thinking about knitting this cardigan a long time now.

You find it in Rowan Knitting Magazine Number 28.

It's so stylish in its simplicity!

 

 

Onza, design Kim Hargreaves for Rowan

 

 

Kid Classic, in lambswool and kid mohair.

A wonderfully soft luxury!

 

I've chosen the shade Earth 872.

 

 

Pastella Scarf

It's finally finished!

The scarf in the silk yarn I bought in Japan 2009.

I started this in april last year and it has been my travel knitting.

 

 

It measures about 20 x 220 cm.

 

The pattern description is found in the first post.
