Whimsical Knitting
A new story by Michelle Edwards
|
|
|
|
|
It's been a winter of shawls, socks, mittens, hats, sweaters, wash cloths, and afghan squares -- knitting for others, and myself. I'm a practical knitter to the core, but when the first flower patterns appeared in the Lion Brand Newsletter, an unexpected longing seized me to break loose. Knit a Morning Glory. For Pete's sake, have some fun. In one of my many knitting baskets were several skeins of LB Collection Cotton Bamboo. The colors and subtle texture reminded me of the Morning Glories that had covered our front porch in true glory last summer. Before casting on with it, visions of indoor vines and bouquets appeared. |

This is Barkcus the dog (click for free pattern). He was so quick/easy to make. I used Vanna yarns in similar colors. He's just the right size for Aidan, my one year old great nephew, to carry around.

This jacket (click for paid pattern) was crocheted by me with the assistance of all the wonderful crocheters who participated in the Crochet-Along, which started earlier this month. It was the best thing I have ever gotten myself into, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes a challenge. It was a great learning experience and I am very proud of the final product. - Kathryn N. |
