Knit-University


Things are changing for me at the yarn shop. I am now an independent contractor. I started a web site so folks can keep in touch with what and where I am teaching. I am running the retreats myself instead of through the shop.
Stop by and if you are interested. Join a mailing list or email me a testimonial if you are so inclined.

The site is still under construction. If you have any suggestions as to how it can be more user friendly please let me know!

One skein into Lindsey & Happy 4th


Happy 4th of July to you!
I am on my way out the door to exercise my Patriotism.

I finished one skein of the Merlin that I am using for this sweater experiment. I charted the basic cable locations. I am throwing in cables in a semi random manner with the exception of the center cable. For that one I am going to be consistent. I am a little nervous about the finished dimensions as I have realized that I won't drop the purl stitches until I have the whole front knitted. If the size is crazy big I may have to go back to square (or stitch) one.
