f.o. : arnica.
It’s been quite awhile since I finished this gorgeous Arnica baby cardigan by Orlane Sucche for a colleague having a baby in the summer. I decided to root around my stash to find similar colors to the original sample because that yellow/peach combo really struck me and I couldn’t get it out of my brain.…

western sunsets.
Here are two versions of the Western Sunset hat I knit up this month. The first one is amazing blacks and oranges and reds, and its perfect. The second I made to match my blue jacket but it doesn’t have the same power as the first version; color choice in fair isle knitting is such…

end of may.

I finished this basic top down striped raglan by Jane Richmond in August and am finally snapping some photos of it. I have yet to wear it, but love the fit. Some modifications I made: the striping sequence is 14 rows in the main color and 3 rows in the contrasting, no waist shaping for…

Finally finishing this striped raglan sweater after a short break for a sock knitting project. This knit is really quick. See my previous post for details on yarn, pattern, etc.

striped pullover.
For some reason, I never actually, in all my years of knitting, have made a really simple, straight forward, top down raglan sweater in stockinette. I’ve started a million; never finished, frogged, and started something different, favoring sleeve details or fair isle motifs or cardigans. Until now. Using Jane Richmond’s Ladies Classic Raglan Sweater, I…

madelinetosh addict, 6.15
I never used to knit with it because its price tag intimidated me. Now, I can’t imagine ever not knitting with some Madelinetosh. It’s so gorgeous I just want to smother myself in its beauty. These are 3 skeins of Madelinetosh Merino Light for a new sweater project in the Antique Lace and Betine colorways.…

octo meets tosh vintage, 2.2013
Sean Doctor received this Octo Scarf from me in February. It’s an easy rib and moss stitch that highlights the Madelinetosh Tosh Vintage in charcoal. Looks so dapper on the fella.
