So much fiber, so little time: The hat series continues

The hat series continues

This is the eleventh Keesmere hat. Since I had all that dyed yarn and hadn't done any stranded knitting in a while, I chose a 13th century Spanish pattern from Here Be Wyverns. The crown decreases merged into the pattern very nicely, and I'm pleased with the look and feel of the final product. The next hat will also be stranded, using the medium gray yarn as the base color.

Otherwise, I've been immersed in learning new software for a part-time consulting project. Won't pay much, but any income greater than zero is welcome.

And I got a little bit of good news this morning: my spruce trees won't be affected by the road construction. One of them will need a haircut to allow for head room on the walkway, and the other is far enough back to be left alone.

Patterns

Lace work

A collection of knitted lace shawls, stoles and wimples. Many were done in handspun yarn. Click on an image for a larger picture and description, plus charts for some.

Socks and small knits

These are all handknitted socks and other small items. Most of these were knitted from my own handspun yarn. Click on an image for a larger picture and description, plus charts for some.

(Most of the Celtic designs came from Celtic Charted Designs by Co Spinhoven, an excellent and inexpensive resource.)

Doll Knits

A collection of (mostly) knitted doll clothing.

Sweaters

Back in the dark ages (as in pre-1987), I used to knit sweaters. Nowadays, I rarely do, so I'll use this album to record some of what I have done and may yet to be.
