On the Needles Friday

An almost finish--Ambiguous Cowl.  The only step left is to graft the edges and weave in the loose ends.

A group at our LYS have been participating in Knit Purl Hunter's Progressive KAL

I am using Hikoo Sueno yarn in Charcoal and Cherry Pie.   

Tangled Mess

Even after many years of winding yarn,  I still have the occasional tangled mess to deal with.  I still hope to cast on the Spiral Cowl for the January KAL at Eat Sleep Knit.

 

Stash Report

Well I needed a little fabric for a workshop and for a tote project.  Didn't seem to have what I needed on hand.  But it is only 4 yards total--not too bad.

The floral and dot are for our guild's workshop in a few weeks.  We are going to make a large quilted tote.  I have to pre-quilt the fabrics.

 

The pink fabric is for the lining of a mystery machine embroidered tote challenge.  I need a piece of duck cloth for the exterior of the bag.  I am thinking black. 

 

My numbers for this first full week of the New Year are:

 

Fabric in this week:  4 yards

Fabric out this week:  0 yards

Total in this year:  4 yards

Total out this year 0 yards

 

I did a little knitting this week.  I made Maize Mitts by Tin Can Knits in Madelinetosh Vintage that I had in my stash.  The color is Vermillion. They are quick, easy and cute.  They only take 100 yards. 

 

 

 

Yarn in this week:  0 yards

Yarn out this week:  100 yards

Yarn in this year:  0 yards

Yarn out this year:  100 yards

 

 

 



On the Needles

A group at our LYS have decided to participate in Knit Purl Hunter's Ambiguous Cowl KAL.  The first clue was posted on Thursday and we are getting together on Sunday to share and get help.

I have 3 more rows to complete the first set of direction.  The lightest yarn is my provisional cast.  The yarn for the cowl is Hikoo Sueno in charcoal and cherry pie.

Yarn and Fabric Stash Report

The best part of Week 1 stash report is that I am working with a clean slate.  I just tallied Yarn and Fabric for 2015.

Fabric in 2015:  105 yards
Fabric out 2015:  60.5 yards
Yarn in 2015:  27,003 yards
Yarn out 2015:  4483

Really hoping to do better this year with using my stash.  My pristine numbers for today are:

Fabric in:  0 yards
Fabric out:  0 yards
Yarn in:  0 yards
Yarn out:  0 yards

On the Needles

My first project for 2016.  Maize mitts by Tin Can Knits.  I found some Madelinetosh Vintage in Vermillion.

I am going to visit Judy's blog to see what others are working on.
