Knitted Aran Sweater #1101 in Lion Brand Fisherman's Wool |
While I am talking about Rhinebeck I might as well post about the sweater I
may be wearing in October. I have my doubts because I have a long way to go. Cabling is slow going business.

Clover Mini Kacha-Kacha Counter, Brittany Cable Needles |
I picked up a few things to help me along. A new cable needle (yes, I still use them. I tried doing without but it made me too nervous.) some new little sticky notes to put all over the charts to help me figure out where I am and finally a new row counter. I love this row counter. It has a lock so you know it shows you the right number when you pick it up again. I found it on
Amazon.
Lambie is not new but she is helping me figure out how far I have to go and it sure looks like a million miles from here.
Wow!! That's pretty intense.....all those cables!!! It's beautiful!! And a serious commitment for sure! I love your little shawl...the colors are amazing! I have worked a few patterns where the edging is worked as you go myself and it's the best. I totally agree with you there.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words!
DeleteThis is gorgeous! Are you doing it in the round or in panels? I hope in the round!!! It is the perfect garb for a fall wooly fest!
ReplyDeleteI should have done it in the round but I followed the pattern and am doing it piece by piece. I wanted to be able to drag it everywhere and I thought the smaller pieces would be easier to deal with. I know I am going to regret that when it is time to sew it all up!
DeleteI think I need one of those little counters if I am going to start lace knitting?!:.... yes I do.....and it is cute to boot.
ReplyDeleteLove the shawl, but knitting garter stitch makes me blather like an idiot.
