STEEKING



Pattern: Steek This Coffee Cosy
Yarn: Mission Falls
2/6/12 cast on
I’m wanting to knit the Neville Longbottom sweater from HP7/2 and I must learn to steek, this is the perfect project to practice.
2/10/12 Finished
I will machine stitch the reinforcement of the steek next time.

Knit Night FINALLY!

Pattern: Knit Night HatYarn: Claudia Hand Painted Yarns Fingering & Berroco Comfort Sock
1/18/12 Cast on
1/22/12 Finished
after making several of these hats, I finally got it to come out right (only in sock weight yarn) the worsted weight that the pattern calls for just would not give me a slouchy hat but a beanie …. IDKY
