First FO of the new year

Jan 14, 2008

Specs:
Needles: US 7
Yarn: 1 skein Lily Sugar N' Cream Rose Pink

The pattern called for US size 6 needles but I don't have that in bamboo. I used 7's. Metal kills my wrists when knitting in cotton. The dishcloth came out quite large but I still like it. This was knitted for an upcoming dishcloth swap.

FO: Some dishcloths for you

Hearts

Butterfly

Lucky Clover

The pattern for these dishcloths can be found at the Yahoo! group Knitted Kitty Dishcloths. They were made using various cotton yarn in varying needle sizes.

Finished objects: Ballband Dishcloth & Wicked

So, I finally have some more FO's to post. First is Mason-Dixon's Ballband Dishcloth. I was a very easy knit and I plan to make a few more of these for gifts.

Ballband Dishcloth

Specs:
One ball each of Lily's Sugar & Cream in Midnight Magic & Hot Purple on size 7 needles.

Next is Zephyr Style's Wicked. I took such bad notes on this pullover, I'm surprised I was able to finish it. I started it in February but I put it off because the weather in Miami was way too hot to work on a sweater.

Wicked

Specs:
6 skeins of Lion Brand's Wool-ease in Chocolate.
Size 44"-47"
Size 8 29" circs for body
Size 8 16" circs for sleeves
Size K crochet hook for binding off.
Mods: I made the short sleeved version of Wicked instead of the long sleeved version. I used one circ for the sleeves instead of dpn's. I also added increases for my hips. Next time I'll add the increases immediately after the decreases then knit a few rows. I probably do the crossover rib instead of seed stitch to match.

This was my first sweater and the pattern was very easy to follow. It won't be my last.

Amineko (sleepy cat)

I actually finished her some time ago but I only got around to completing her last week. This was my first and she definitely won't be my because my mother asked me ever so nicely to make one for her office. :

She was made with some cheap (and I do mean cheap) acrylic yarn and I used beans for the lower half of her body and her hands and feet.

I honestly did not mean to make her face look so grumpy. I guess she's channeling me. :)

Candy

I made this dishcloth as well. You really can't see the stitch detail but called fake cables. It's a little something I made up based on stitches from a stitch dictionary.

I've been designing dishcloths while my internet was out this week. I was able to get two designs down. Both were based on patterns found in a stitch dictionary I have laying around.

Leaves

Star

I think I'll do a couple more.

While I have internet connection....

Big Rig

A little dishcloth I made for my little cousin who loves anything trains and trucks. Pattern is from Wicket Stitch. If only I could find a train pattern now....

4 little birdies & the sun

I have some more amigurumi to post. These four little birdies

Little birds

A very easy pattern from the Bittersweet Blog.

When I first saw amigurumi, I thought it was quite difficult. But I looked at some of the patterns, including the Japanese ones, and you know what? It's really simple. If you know the basic symbols, everything is a breeze.

Sunshine

This is the completed dishcloth for the Monthly Dishcloth KAL on Yahoo. It's the sun. Simple pattern but I was hoping for something with a little more....oomph. But it's okay. I'll find something. In fact, I have something. I might work on it this week. :)
