Very pretty! And such a relief that you didn't write "taunt." The substitution of "taunt" for "taut" must be my number-one-least-favorite common mistake with the English language.
I love it! I also plan to knit Cobblestone for myself and then maybe for the guys in my life! You are a very talented knitter and your photography is terrific too!
So my lineup of projects is basically a recapitulation of everything you've made in the last few months. I can't wait to get the specs on your beautiful blanket.
Some gorgeous knitting in that project. I still have to remind myself that it's going to be a (humble?) blanket. It still amazes me what can be done with one really long length of string....
I love the texture and the colour, really great with that flower pattern. But what will it become out of it? It looks so finished already, but I recall you said it was going to become a blanket? Nice however, as a table cloth or as blanket!!!
Blocking: when all is revealed. Yes, that's probably the best part (next to wearing/wrappng/using). It's beautiful! I wait with bated breath for the directions!
I read knitting blogs every day hoping to run across a 'juicy' one: a pattern find, a wonderful FO that's an inspiration, the thrilling modifications the blogger generously shares. Your entry fits all my definitions. Thanks for being out there in blogland. Your lap blanket is wonderful.
that's awesome. now i'm inspired to try some different patterns with worsted weight and big needles. i'm doing two shawls with cobweb weight and i have tons of needles smaller that a size 5, so it'd be a welcome change.
Another perfect rendition of two old standards! I love fan & feather and have used it often but never to this, amazing end! Enjoy it this Fall and congrats on grad school.
Does it say anywhere how much yarn you used? Or what sized needles? That is so gorgeous that I want to make one myself. If it says that and I missed it, I apologize.
