I managed to get 415 yards on approx. 4 oz of handpainted roving from here.
Mittens from my own thick/thin handspun. Extremely warm and lots of fun to knit.
Earflap hat, made from Noro Yoroi. I don't know the colorway, because I lost the label. It doesn't matter anyway, because they don' t make Yoroi anymore. I love this hat! Super warm and the ear flaps are different colors, which I totally dig. I modified the pattern from the Kitty Hat in Stitch N Bitch. Easy peasy and a very quick knit.
Doods...I need a camera that isn't 5 years old. I dream of digital SLRs.
I envy your knitting skills. My garandma knitted, Mom crocheted, and I never got the hang of either. {rueful smile}
ReplyDeleteTho I can braid pretty well, if I may say so myself. {REALLY BIG GRIN}

I can't seem to get the hang of crochet. Possibly because I'm not super motivated about it. I prefer the way knitted goods look.
ReplyDeleteI got REALLY good at braiding when my daughter was small.
Braids...nom. Wait...no! Anyways, you are a knitting fool!
ReplyDeleteI know this. I watch you in amazement. I get bored so easily...

LOL!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised at what I can do with braiding. I've discovered some pretty interesting and fun techniques that stretch the definition for me. {SMILE}
ReplyDeleteHowever, knitting is as far beyond me as crochet: very. {rueful smile}
