Shirley's Baby Blanket

This blanket is sooo sweet with all the animals.  Shirley also lined the back of the blanket with matching fabric. Wish I had remembered to get a picture of that also as it was a really nice touch!!  She made this with Plymouth DreamBaby DK

Kim's Sweater (Lot of Stockinette)

My friend Kim, who is an excellent knitter, decided to make this beautiful sweater for a friend.  It is a Classic Elite pattern, done in Cascade 220.  The problem was - the stockinette stitch.  She became BORED.  Thought there for a minute, when she came in to buy sock yarn that she just might not finish this gorgeous sweater.  She needs more challanging knitting - she is that good!  So I put her sock yarn in the back and basically told her she could have it when the sweater was done ha ha!  It worked.  This sweater while classic and simple in style - is beautfiul.  Can't wait to see the Noro Socks Kim.

Lace Shawl- Sample for Class

This is so pretty!  The class starts next Friday, June 12.  Barbara, the teacher made this one.  Her words "Picture being on the Hudson, with this wrapped around you"  Lace weights make for some great summer knitting.

Two Rugs

How could you ever put these on the floor and let someone walk on them.  I think they belong a wall somewhere.  Cascade 220 was used for the edging on these.  We were all stunned with the quality of work on these two rugs.  Just beautiful!

Amy's Sweater

This is such a sweet little hooded sweater.  Just love the color combination.  I missed Amy when she stopped in (which upset me, because I so enjoy talking to her) so I don't have all the info on the pattern and yarn, but will post as soon as I see her again.  I'm pretty sure it is the Blue Sky Alpaca Hooded Sweater Pattern made in Blue Sky ??? Cotton??

Finally got to talk to my Amy!  It is Blue Sky Alapac's cotton and the good news is Amy said she used less than one skein on each color.  The Pattern is Blue Sky's Hooded Baby Sweater.

Wow - Blue Sky Alpacas Baby Blanket

Two of them together!  The green one is done in Blue Sky's dyed cotton, the pink in their Worsted Hand dyes.  I believe there is a third one floating around my friend Jody's house.  She made two in the time it took me to make one.  This is a very easy pattern with a nice little intro to lace.

Anne's Shawl

Beautiful - Both the shawl and Anne.  Anne and I untangled a few balls of cashmere and got to know each other.  It always amazes me how you can make a friend, just winding or in this case untangling, a ball of yarn.  We call it "a bonding experience" here.
