Marsha\u2019s Projects

I\u2019ve stopped knitting on Holey Comfort cardigan by Hinterm Stein using Elemental Effects Cormo since I\u2019m running out of yarn. I\u2019ve been perplexed why when the pattern calls for 1500 yards and I have 1600. I think the problem is row guage. I\u2019m getting 37 rows instead of 35 rows per inch. Apparently, that makes a huge impact. I\u2019ve learned my lesson and will check row gauge from now on. I ordered another skein which arrived this week so I can start again on the sweater

I finished the Arne and Carlos socks in Pairfect.

I cast on socks for myself using Tilli Tomas Artisan Sock in Coconut Grove. This is yarn I picked up at the first NoCKRs retreat destash room. This project was finished live on the episode!\xa0

Kelly\u2019s Projects\xa0

I finished the green socks I was making with Yarns from the Plain yarn.\xa0

I started the new pullover and ended up using a combination of these patterns--Rachel by Jos\xe9e Paquin, Fresh by Jos\xe9e Paquin.\xa0 I decided not to use Muriel by Jos\xe9e Paquin. To view the changes that I made to the striping sequence, see my project page.\xa0

Get Your House Right is a book that we both recommend for information about architectural details. Just like in knitting design, it\u2019s the little details and bits of knowledge that can make a design look just right. The Fibonacci sequence is another one of the tools that relate to both architecture and knitting. I used the numbers from the Fibonacci sequence to make sure that the stripes in the pullover look balanced, even though I had to modify them a bit.\xa0
