Knitters in our Sweater Class
are doing some wonderful work! I was really excited to see all the
progess and resources that were shared over the last week. Many of us
are discovering that sweater knitting can be easier than we though, and
even those of us who are not ready to knit a sweater have been able to
follow along, ask questions, and bookmark the lessons for future
reference! Follow the link above to view the whole class archive.
This
week, while we’re finishing the body and sleeves of our sweaters, I
have some reader-submitttedmaterial to share–some progress pictures,
some sweater knitting tools, and some design resources! The first is a
progress shot from Linda (poodlechick on Ravelery.) She’s making a
brilliant red seweater with a seed-stitch hem and swatched, cast on,
and knit through the waist decreases all in one weekend! Linda is using
Comfy in Serrano and I love the way this is knitting up!
Next up are progress pictures of the TWO sweaters that Cellogirl is
working along with the class. I have to say, she is a knitting
overaceiver in the best way! Read on to see what she’s done…
Okay, so I only made one mitten when I was snowed in at home last week, but it’s all a part of the plan. You see, I’ve long admired all the cute colorwork mitten patterns out there, but I don’t wear mittens (or know anybody gift-worthy who does). I’m a devoted glove gal because of what I refer to as “finger claustrophobia”–fellow glove wearers probably know what I’m talking about!
