Here's hoping ya'll all had a FANTASTIC Knitty 2006!!!



This Lacy Wrap #15 is from Fall 2005 Vogue. I knit her with using Brown Sheep's Lamb's Pride. I intend to knit a hat, socks and gloves to go with, of course. My apologies that I don't have a good picture of my final 2006 knitting project...LOL, that's okay, I suppose, I forgot to take pictures of my 1st 2007 knitting project, too..uhoh, hope we don't see a trend, LOL!



Lonnie's Sport Socks designed and knit for My Man after I realized how much he loved wearing the other pair (yeah, I had only knit one pair for the man...I'm ashamed!) that I knit him. My goodness, he would wash and wear them several times a week, right then and there I knew it was time for a special pair for him. These were knit with KnitPicks painted merino yarn that is actually no longer made...they are so soft!! I've not got to get busy sock yarn shopping for yarn for him that will be machine washable!

Continuing in the "Whimsy" series, A Touch of Whimsy Fingerless Gloves or Wrist Warmers knit with Malabrigo in the Molly colorway....very fun knit!


(Caught the Sock Bros outside climbing a tree!) Knit for My Man using PGR's Dream Sock pattern and Brown Sheep Wildfoote yarn...I will never use it again, it's far too splitty! OH, and #1 circs.

Rusted Root knit with Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece for my sister...a very fun knit!

"A Touch of Whimsy" hat, designed and knit to go with the scarf of the same name. Very fun and easy knit. About 2/3 of 1 hank of Malabrigo-size 7 needles for the hat band. Size 8-16"circ for the top, along with another circ or dpns for decreasing.

Another capelet and raglan top using acrylic yarn...just look at Livie, makes working with that nasty acrylic yarn worth it!

I love your flower power wash clothes. They would be neat as a rug! How could I make them bigger?
