My purple sweater
This
sweater is from a Rowan Pattern "Emmeline" by
Sarah Dallas from Rowan Magazine number
28. I used Mission Falls 1824 in several
colors.

My navy sweater
| This
sweater is from a pattern in one
of the knitter's magazines. I knitted
it before I knew how important it
was to know which pattern came from
where and who the designer was. The
yarn is 1) Navy blue from my LYS.
It is their house yarn, and 2) a
variegated yarn of silk and mohair
from ArtFibers in San Francisco. |

My first vest
This
is the very first thing I knitted.
I used a pattern from the Vogue Very
Easy Knits book. I used a yarn from
ArtFibres called Shakespear, a merino
wool.
I hadn't knitted
in over 35 years and was walking
around San Francisco when I saw
this store. An hour (and $120.00)
later, I was knitting again.

This
is a pattern from the summer "Knitters" 2001
and is knit side to side. I used
short rows to make sure it was big
enough in the right places and small
enough in the others.
The yarn is 100%
mercerized Pima Cotton by Schaefer
Yarns. It is hand painted and quite
lovely.
