Red Robin Shawl

Image
I absolutely love this pattern and the yarn I used.  Yarn is called Seascape.  It's a hand-dyed yarn by  https://www.etsy.com/shop/DellasCrochetCottage/sold?page=3&ltid=1024812941 She can also be found on Facebook.  She has her own group named The Cottage.  Some of her yarns are one of a kind, sometimes you have to pre-order, too.  She doesn't have all the yarns she dyes in her Etsy shop .  She posts pictures of her yarns on her group or, she can also be found on the group Knitting 3.  Her name is Adella Colvin and she is a very nice person. Pattern costs $5.76 USD. http://www.ravelry.com/projects/InLuvWithYarn/red-robin-shawl

Sundry Shawl

Image
This is a very nice pattern.  It is very wide.  The pattern called for blocking, but because of its size, I didn't have to.  I just ironed it out. Yarns:  Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino in Teal and Ella Rae Cozy Soft Prints in color #2. The pattern costs $5.50, but, well worth the money. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sundry  

Meet Sophie!!!

Sophie is the newest kitty to our  cat family.  She is a Maine Coon mix, born May 20th of this year. She is always purring and loves falling asleep in my arms while I play my Facebook games.  She's another cat that loves my yarn.                            

Wiggle Lace Scarf

I'm very happy with this pattern, especially with the yarn.  I made it a shawl, instead of a scarf.    The yarn is HiKoo by Skacel . The yarn has sequins and clear beads. The pattern is free on Ravelry.   http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/wiggle-lace-scarf

New Books

I enjoy knitting shawls, especially with sock yarn. I'm called the Shawl Queen in one of my knitting groups on Facebook.      I purchased these on Amazon. The Curls book is all charts only.
