While I was collecting all of these pictures, I was thinking how much I'd gotten done, until I realized it's been three months since my last post and only two of the photos show a completed project.
 |
| My son's hoodie is almost done. It just needs to be sewn together, the hood knitted and the zipper attached. But, it's 95 out. No hurry. |
 |
| My sweater is also in the slow lane. This is the second sleeve. Then, there's the neck edge to knit and the buttons to sew on. |
 |
| I'm guessing I knitted this sweater for my nephew about 18 years ago. He handed it down to another nephew. It'll move on to my grandchild now that I've changed the letter. |
 |
| I've been wanting to weave some lightweight baby blankets. The design I chose is another Pinterest find, printed onto graph paper and transferred by hand to a different size/scale graph paper. |
 |
Each square on the grid has to be either a dot, or not. Filling the squares in now, with the entire pattern in front of me, let's me see how best to make what will be straight lines look curved.
|
 |
| The last step before weaving is to highlight and outline alternate columns. This makes it easier to know where I am on the pattern and on the loom. |
 |
| Tada! |
 |
| And here's my happy ending with me and my daughter in these simple and fun to crochet hats. |
