Marsha’s Projects
Socks: Finished! Use Regia 4-fadig by Arne & Carlos in colorway 03760. I got this yarn from the NoCKRs destash room. A big thank you to the knitter who donated it as I love the colors and pattern.
Ames Beanie: Stephanie Larson. Using Purls Before Swine Hometown Worsted in colorway Seaglass. I ripped back to correct a mistake in one of the cables.
Morgan’s Pinwheels & Checks: Started the fourth towel.
The Weekender: by Andrea Mowry. Using Cascade 220 in colorway Wine. Did not get gauge with the suggested #9 needles. Went down to #8 and still off by ½ stitch. I think the fabric would be too dense going down to #7. Decided to make size #2 which, if the math is correct, will give me the suggested 10” of positive ease. Fingers crossed! I have knit 15” of the body and about to spit for armholes.
Weaving Studio: It’s a work in progress. I met with a weaver who answered my want ad in the Seattle Weavers Guild newsletter. She sold me a LeClerc loom bench which is working great. Plus five shuttles for making rag rugs.
Kelly’s Projects
Finishing the ribbing on the body of Graphito and ready to pick up for the sleeves.
Bought the pattern for Solomon Poncho. It’s been in my queue since 2023.
Also interested in a new Thea Colman vest coming this week named The Last Word.
