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.

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.
