So here's the first result of my inspiration to knit more vintage clothing. This pretty blue shawl looks great with a simple, strapless dress.
I knit this pretty slouchy hat as a gift for a family member. I think I may need to knit many more in this style! I love it.
Currently, I'm working on a pair of leg warmers. I'm try to gain more skill at using four needles before I start some socks!
Last week I cut up a few old t-shirts and began to knit with them! It took me literally less than 8 minutes to knit this small washcloth that is perfect for scrubbing! I will no longer be throwing away any old shirt! haha
I love that shawl on you! That slouchy hat is perfect...
ReplyDeleteAre you on Ravelry ? Do you share your patterns?
If not I understand.
what size needles are you using for your leg warmers? I found your web-site from twitter..Vickie Howell was saying the nicest things about you:)
ReplyDeleteMany Blessings to you,

Alma: Thanks so much! I can't wait to wear the shawl with a nice dress. I'm not on Ravelry but I definitely need to join soon! I don't share my patterns but I've considered selling them on Etsy. :)
ReplyDeleteRenee: For my leg warmers I'm using a size 5.0 mm needle. So far I'm loving how they are turning out. Thanks so much! I'm so glad that more people are enjoying my website.
