Gertrude
This is the humble beginnings of my Gertrude sweater by Smith Island Pattern Factory. So- what you see here is the basic staples of knitting time. Got my "bubble" jammies, journal, great yarn (kathmandu Aran) and a delicious cup of mega coffee! I started this project over the weekend being that my Knightsbridge sweater and Purl beret #4 have reached completion. I've wanted to knit the Gertrude for a while-I think the construction is interesting. I'm working on the back right now and should be up to the sleeves by tomorrow. (the sleeves are created with a knitted cast on NEATO!)

Stacy's Sweater
Yes, this sweater is now part of finished collection.
One of the customers at Rosie's Yarn Cellar called it
"handsome" and I couldn't think of a better way to
describe the KnightsBridge Sweater. YAY!

Almost Done Cartigan
This is an updated photo of the Mock Cable Sweater. I finished the
right sleeve tonight. I now only have the collar and seaming to complete my first sweater. Hope to wear it this weekend!

Not another Purl Beret!
This is my Stripy Hot Pink Purl Beret, it is almost finished.
I'd better have a good reason for another one of these, right?
Well, I gave the first two away and finally made a third for myself.
Unfortunately, that one is lost. In the meantime what am I to do without
a super cute beret for the winter? Duh...make another one! I was really
lucky to be at Rosie's when some new colors of Koigu arrived. I got this great hot pink shade to stripe with a pale grey. I am so close to finishing!

Purl Beret #2
The purl Beret is super fun to work because it knits up super fast. I used two different skeins of Koigu (1/2 skein each). I was finished in two days. The pattern can be found on purlbee.com under the Purl Beret. I am working on my fourth beret, it will be in HOT PINK and grey. It is a delicious combination.
