Smart Peeps
posted in Uncategorized |I’m glad I’m virtually surrounded by peoples that know their shit! Most of you voted for the Yarn Ahoy color combo for my Tempest cardigan and it’s coming out fantastic.
I really like the contrast in the colors. The pattern is super easy to follow and it’s going rather quickly. It’s also good commuting knitting!
This past week I placed a couple of orders, Little Knits and Loopy Ewe. After finishing Alhambra this week (yes, it’s finished; FO post later this week!), I’m in the mood to knit lace. Mostly Anne Hanson patterns BUT I ALSO want to design my own triangle shawl! I’m really really hoping to be able to figure this out. SO I ordered some Kauni from Little Knits in a gorgeous colorway and plan to try my hand at triangles using that!
In the meantime, I also finished one little thingie:
This is the Baby Got Back Thong. Designed by yours truly.
This is my first design that I am selling. But all proceeds go to Ravelry.
As an additional incentive, I am offering a gift bag to the first person to purchase my pattern and every 10th person afterwards up to the 100th person.
So you have a chance to win one of ELEVEN gift bags! Each bag will contain a skein of Panda Cotton for you to knit your own Baby Got Back! Thong and a bar of Rosi G. handmade soap. ;o)
