<u><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Is it Spring yet?</span></span></u></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My oh my it sure has been a long winter here in the North East. I can't wait for some warm sunshiny 70 degrees weather. As a matter of fact our Thursday afternoon group started to knit cardigans for spring and warm weather. Below are some pictures of a very popular cardigan that we did and it all began with Pam. Pam came in with this finished cardi knit in Ritratto a mohair blend, and we all fell in love with it. I ended up knitting 2 each in different fibers, Karen knit 4 also in different fibers and they all look wonderful and fit beautifully. Pam has recently completed another, I forgot to get picture next
time!! It such a fast project it literally took us 2 weeks to finish
one sweater!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Remember
when I was knitting this top? It was a struggle, when I completed the
back and began working on the front I noticed I was running low on yardage
(as it happened I sold 4 hanks earlier and didn't realize) so I had 6 at
200 yds each, it should work right? Wrong the stitch ate quite a bit of
yarn. So here we go rip. I could have put it a side but I really like
the yarn. It has great drape and it feels really soft for 100% cotton.
Anyway to make a long story short I cast on 130 sts and followed a
pattern found on the internet "Shapely Tank Top" I liked the look of
the tight fit on top and it has some short row shaping at the beginning
plus I would have enough yarn to make sleeves. I knitted and ripped
till I had it just right. What I learned is from now on I will always
use the crochet cast on. It's a great way to go back and add length to
my top. Because I was afraid that I didn't have enough yarn I made it
shorter then I liked, but it turned out that I had plenty so I went back
and ripped back the chain cast on, picked up all the stitches and
Voila' perfect. No seam showed nothing notable. The top part fits
perfectly and the sleeve length is great. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I
did change the pattern though. I didn't do the shaping like the
original pattern, I decreased to the waist shaping more then required
and didn't increase for the bust so it turned out to be A-lined. Now
after I completed it I realized that when the top is A-lined it needs to
be a little longer then a regular top. So guess what I will be ripping
out the bind off at the bottom and adding more rows (I still have some
more yarn believe it or not!!) </span><br />

How the time has passed, its been a busy whirlwind of a time.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let me explain, the Christmas holidays took a lot of my time. I host Christmas Eve so very busy there, we were 17 people and I do buffet style lots of cooking and preparing.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Plus I decided to get me a new puppy. My new baby came into our lives January 10, 2015 </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">His name is Rigoletto! He is a Mini Schnauzer!! Rigo has kept me very busy! He is so much fun. He is all I did for the month of January. Puppies are so funny the crazy things they do, wow!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Then Pam (one of the ladies from our knitting group) came in wearing this really pretty cardi that she had knitted with Ritratto (mohair blend) gorgeous yarn in a very easy drop stitch pattern with a size 10 needle, we all flipped and are now making it as well! two of the ladies are using a beautiful black and purple Ritratto I decided to knit it in summer weight (Lucci Yarns) Lucca. It such a fast pattern I'm almost done. I'm sure Karen is done as well!!</span><br />

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The holidays have arrived I hope you are all prepared!! We here at the studio have been busy rearranging the studio to make the most of the available space. I'm sure by now you all know how much I love yarn!! So I just added more wall space for yarn to display plus I've enlisted the help of my husband electrician and have more spot lights and still I want more! Hampden Hills Alpaca Magic is due to come in anytime now (Can't wait). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Also I received a dozen Noro Magazines if any of you are interested please email they are not listed on website. The magazine normally retails for $9.99 and for nonnas customer they are $7.99 a 20% discount. Most of our yarns are a min. of 20% discount but only if you email your order I can't do it thru website. Also the studio is always open (it's my walkout basement) email or text me, to make sure I'm in, when you want to come to see/touch/feel the yarns!! By the way we do meet every Thursday afternoon from 12:30 - 3:00, we have a great group of ladies!!</div>

I have also been busy finishing some project and adding some. The picture below is a little wrap for what I call a Nickie size! :-) This yarn is 100% American spun natural color donated by Anita the Alpaca from Hampden Hills Alpaca!!! It has 300 yds/ 4 oz , and it is so wonderful to knit with then you give it a bath and wow does it ever bloom!!! </div>

In retrospect I should have purchased one more hank but didn't know at the time what I was going to knit with it. I love the pattern too its called "Lace Cables" its an 8 row repeat and a multiple of 11 stitches plus 7 did a little math and I cast on 70 sts (4 garter sts on each side) also I used a size 7 needle I wanted it to be a loose knit.<br />

This cardi I used Romney Ridge Farm worsted yarn called Fire. I was worried about this yarn cause it felt rather scratchy but after soaking for a while in wool wash it really soften up quite a bit and its great! The pattern is also a quick one first off I knitted with size 9 needle so you know that goes quick. I begin with one front knit to the desired length then increase for sleeve, maybe 8 sts, continue to shoulder then put on hold go and work on other side. Once you have both fronts at the same point put center sts ( I put the border sts plus 5) on hold and put remaining sts back on needle, work across to the sts on hold now you have to cast on for back of neck (not as many as you have on hold) then continue to other end. Now you are working on the back of your sweater. Continue to you reach sleeve increase of the front (fold at neck edge, I put marker) but now you decrease the same amount of sts. Continue to end!! love this pattern I was able to complete in less then 2 weeks. By the way as with any hand dyed yarn alternate hanks so the yarns combine in color. There is no written pattern for this cardigan I just play around with the gauge and calculate more or less how many to cast on for one front!!!<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">This is color Chick-a-dee from Hampden Hills Alpaca, just the softest alpaca yet. The pattern is one of mine. (I know I can't take good pictures but trust me its a great fit perfect to cuddle in).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Met with Erica the owner dyer from Hampden Hills at Rhinebeck and it was like reconnecting with an old friend. Very sweet. Anyway come November, which is soon, I should be receiving some "Magic" a chunky worsted alpaca in just gorgeous hand dyed colors! I can't wait!!!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: large;">Remember last posting where I talked about Hampden Hills Alpaca, as soon as it arrived 2 colors found new homes! I am left with Sangria and Chickadee (top left). This yarn is so unbelievably soft it just glides on your hands!!</span><u><b><br /></b></u></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I've decided to knit my ever so popular "P2tog" Cardi with the Chickadee color and hopefully have it finished in time for the NY Sheep and Wool Festival in Rhinebeck, NY.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I plan to visit Erica from Hampden Hills Alpaca, therefore my thought was to be wearing this cardigan knitted up in her yarn. Wouldn't that be perfect. Wish me luck!!!</span><br />

The Farmers Almanac is predicting a brutal winter for us and I've notice on the website people are gearing up already. Sales have picked up and I don't blame them. Last winter was very long and very cold. I used my "Great American Afghan" all winter long. I knitted this afghan with 100% merino and let me tell you its so warm! I actually never finished the edge. Here is a picture as you can see no edging, I do have the yarn to finish it but I could not wait. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">It was fun knitting each square, even though some square were a bit more challenging then others but we sure learned quite a bit.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Now I am about finished with another afghan this one is for my son in college, his school colors blue and gold. The yarn I used is Louisa Harding Kashmir worsted (blue) and Ella Rae Lace Merino Chunky (gold). Both yarns are washable wools!! not that he will ever wash it</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Hello Friends, </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">It has been a while, sometimes life takes over and you have no control over it. June/July brought </span></span><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">HS </span></span><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">graduation for my youngest and then a chain reaction of college visits. Till he decided and then more college visits and paper work and get ready to pack up. That's where we are at now, finalizing all that is required and he will be off by the end of the month. Quite exciting for him, overwhelming for me. </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #20124d;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">My knitting is what is keeping me sane and focused, what I keep doing is begin new projects. I am up to 5 different patterns, a couple of cardigans, a top, a shawl, and of course an afghan for my college bound child. Also needed some instant gratification and crocheted 2 shawls and completed. But my latest cast on is a shawl which keeps me knitting right now, this project I am really enjoying. It's a stitch I found on Pinterest (Love Pinterest) but what makes it fun is combining yarns and colors that work with a particular stitch</span></span></span>.<br />
<span style="color: #20124d;">Here below are some pictures, </span><br />

<span style="color: #20124d;">And now this is what I am working on now and kind most excited about it. I love the colors and the stitch. The color of the yarn work perfectly with this stitch and a little "copper" sparkle goes a long way. The yarn is Done Roving Frolicking Feet DK in "Copper Pennies". This shawl/wrap is working up rather quickly or should I say I am working it more and more. I'm aiming to finish this one!!</span><br />

Remember my new obsession with the zoom loom? I made a table mat but that was too quick for me so I'm experimenting on making a cardigan for Nickie. I found in my stash of yarn a-plenty a Filatura di Crosa "Tiffany" a sparkly cotton blend (only 3) then I supplemented with a bamboo to match also only 3 in stash.<br />
Here in the picture below the cardi is almost done I still have add to the length. It's a little too short it's like a bolero therefore I have one more skein of bamboo which I'll use to add to the length.<br />

<br />
First off I want to tell you about the Cuddly Cotton, originally I purchased it for weaving, well I decided to knit a swatch just to see how the color worked up and to feel the fabric drape. The stitch definition is just right the drape on size 6 needle is light and soft so forget the weaving design myself a summer top. Went to my software and designed a A-Line shaped top with raglan 1/2 length sleeves and round neck with a little collar. The stitch I decided on is the broken rib which is a simple stitch to remember. This is how far I am. My gauge 24 sts 34 rows in stitch pattern = 4" <br />

The reason why I am only up to that point is that I just had an over whelming feeling to purchase a Zoom Loom and boy am I on a roll, put all knitting down for now 2 weeks and just Zooming away.<br />
Its the most satisfying feeling to finish a square in just 20 min. a square is complete with the minimal amount of yarn. I have been weaving all the little bits of yarn I can't and wont throw away! ;o)<br />
My enthusiasm was so contagious that Karen just could not resist and purchased one for herself. Now we are going crazy designing with squares. We discovered that we can make triangles with this loom which gave us more ideas we can do shaping such as cardis or tops. First thing I did after sampling all different yarns is a table mat because that's how far the yarn went.<br />
This is a yarn from Cascade called Copa. It really is 100% Viscose. It come in small tubes and it's a little stiff so it comes off the loom in a perfect square. I only had partial tube in my stash and I managed to get 16 squares then took
cotton thread and crocheted around each square and attached as I went. Here are some pictures of my sampling different yarns!!<br />

Then when I played with the above yarn another old yarn from stash Filatura Di Crosa "Tiffany" a cotton blend with 103 yds (I have only 3) I managed to make 13 squares from one hank so my plan is to make a small cardigan. Next will be a Noro yarn maybe the sock weight can you immagine!!!<br />

Well What do you think? It turned out to measure 23 X 31". Only 2 hanks!! It grew a bit when wet blocked. This would make a beautiful wrap just I would cast on less like half the amount and go for it. Can you imagine, there are so many gorgeous colors available!!!<br />

How cute is this stitch? I have 2 hanks of this yarn Done Roving, Frolicking Feet DK, Superwash Merion, each hank has 350 yds so a total of 700yds and I need to knit a baby blanket with it (mom likes all the colors, Blue Ridge Bobbies). Well I played with about 4 different stitches until I came across this particular stitch. I think the color work perfect with it. I am alternating hanks which is always suggested when using hand dyed yarns. <br />
Okay the pattern:<br />

I crochet cast on 160, sts knitted a garter st border of 13 rows giving me 6 ridges then I am keeping 8 sts in garter then started the pattern (144 sts) I knit kind of loose so I am knitting with a size US5 needle. I like it to be a loose knit rather then tight or to gauge knit. It makes for a very bouncy soft feel. so far it measures about 30" wide and it should be enough to make it at least 30" long.<br />

Let me introduce you to my "Shimmery Elegance" shawl!<br />
It is elegant but at the same time it can be worn with jeans.<br />
<br />
I really enjoy knitting shawls, never having to worry about fit. This shape is one that will remain on your shoulders and not fall off like your other triangular shawls.<br />
<br />
New on the website are these kits that I put together for you all to enjoy. They are simple and quick to knit.<br />
<br />
The kit has a hank of hand dyed ribbon yarn (I've had a tough time parting with ) and one skein of mohair blend, knit on size 11 circular needles and believe me it will go pretty quick.<br />
<br />
There are only 10 kits in stock. Go to website to see all the available colors. These are it, once they are gone, they are gone.<br />

<b>**Mohair </b>usually refers to a silk-like fabric or yarn
made from the hair of the Angora goat. It is one of the oldest
textile fibers in use. It is notable for its high luster and sheen,
which has helped give it the nickname the "Diamond Fiber", Mohair is
warm in winter as it has great insulating properties, while remaining
cool in summer due to its moisture wicking properties. It is durable,
naturally elastic, flame resistant, crease resistant, and does not felt.
It is considered to be a luxury fiber, like cashmere, angora and silk,
and is usually more expensive than most wool that comes from sheep.<b> ** </b><br />
<br />
I love the term "Diamond Fiber" Especially since TSC- S. Charles, has a mohair with a hint of sparkle that looks like it was sprinkled with diamond dust called Luna. We have 4 different colors in stock of this particular mohair<b>. </b>Let me show you<b>:</b><br />

But "dressing" that loom is what takes the most patience for me. I can't seem to get the right tension, I start off in perfect tension all across but as I go on weaving the warp sag either in the middle or on one side it does not remain tight. So I take a break go back to my knitting and then try again. Mean while this is what I finished!<br />

I used Lucci Yarn as weft and 2 strands of cotton thread as warp. Love how the two yarns interact. I imagined that because I used 2 very thing threads that it would have been a tight weave but no it actually turned out to have a very soft drape.<br />
The next group were woven first with the same warp but I used "Cuddly Cotton from Euro Baby (KFI) as weft thinking of kitchen towels but still the warp was way to thin so I will use as place mats.<br />

I will try it again but I knitted a swatch with Cuddly Cotton and I love it, so I might be knitting me a summer top with it now ;o)<br />
I am going to keep practicing dressing this loom till I get it right, it will take some time.<br />
<br />
After handling the cotton, my juices have been flowing towards designing summer tops. I am trying to restrain myself I have to finish the Mink cardigan. I have one front completed and half way thru the other front, just saying!<br />

Euro Baby <a href="http://www.knittingfever.com/c/yarn/cuddly-cotton/" target="_blank" title="Euro Baby Cuddly Cotton color card">Cuddly Cotton</a>
is a 100% Cotton yarn that is great for big and small kids. The
generously sized hanks have approximately 202 yards per 100g, while the
suggested gauge is 5.5 sts per inch on a US 5 needle.<br />
<br />
We have 4 colors in stock 3 hanks already found new homes <br />
I love this cotton it has a great stitch definition and a great drape. at the moment Karen and I are weaving with it but next I am planning a top down sweater!<br />

Hello, the new year and Karen :-) brought me to weaving, I am having so much fun!! Look at all I have done so far. The three place mats completely finished, I crocheted the side edges to hide the "bad" sides. Then I couldn't wait to "dress" the loom again and this time I "slayed" from front to back to see if that gave me a easier better result. Not sure just yet, the result was the same. I'm trying to minimize yarn waist. It took about 3-4 days to dress the loom and in 3 days I was done weaving the project (second set of picture) I wove a shawl!! So excited! I will be wet blocking it today then I'll post a picture of it on my maniquin. I will be trying again this time I will dress the loom from back to front with the nail board hubby made for me and we'll see if it will turn out better. </div>

But don't worry I can't forget my knitting, I was dying to knit with Lotus's Mimi the 100% mink yarn. I've had my eye on this color and double it up using a size 9 needle and found this really nice stitch and a cardigan on the making. Love working with this yarn it really is amazingly soft!!! You have to try at least knit a scarf or a wrap each hank has over 300 yds. It goes a long way!! <br />

All laid out to dry, wove three mats for the island top!! <br />
Once I had all the yarn on the loom it went relatively quick. Only thing I need to figure out how to make them all the same size. I have three lengths one longer then the other :)<br />
I did learn to do a hem stitch which gives a nice edge to the fringe.<br />
The yarn I used was Berroco's Seduce from a while a go.<br />

I made a mistake on the mat above and liked the result so I tried it on this one on the left can you see it?<br />
<br />
I have already measured and warped another project and I am threading from front to back of the loom instead of back to front. I shall see which way is easier, I'll let you know.<br />
<br />
But what fun another great way to use all that lovely yarn!!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><div align="center"><a href="http://www.ad-tech.com/ny/adtech_new_york_exhibitor_detail.aspx?exid=1047"><img src="http://www.freehitscounters.org/counter.php?id=88967&t=3" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:arial; font-size:10px;"><a href="http://www.ad-tech.com/ny/adtech_new_york_exhibitor_detail.aspx?exid=1047">Tatto Media</a></span></div></div>Market Bags Boutiquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11814266750441166328noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8774023965225921691.post-26926440032952845462014-01-07T13:44:00.000-05:002014-01-07T13:44:22.857-05:00Happy New Year!!!Happy New Year to all!! May 2014 bring more knitting and crocheting time for you. I always find January to be perfect for new beginnings, new projects, great inspiration to try my hand on something totally different. But at the same time always include all the fiber love that is in my studio!!<br />
<br />
Not too long ago we were talking about weaving. I tried then put it away, I have a knitters loom from Ashford and it is really simple to use. I have taught myself to weave plain scarves and actually sold some. I also have a 4 shaft Schacht table loom and it's not so simple to use and as you can see below I am trying again. Karen inspired me to go back to it, the plan is Karen is purchasing a 28" Ridged Heddle Loom (similar to the knitters loom) and we will be making place mats. Now I couldn't wait and tried it.<br />

You tube is a wonderful thing! I'm not quite there yet obviously but I will persevere.<br />
<br />
At the same time I had to complete a last minute Christmas gift so needless to say the gift was a little late but just the same the recipient was thrilled to receive it. Loved knitting this stitch its only a 2 row repeat and the wrong side is purl across so basically its one row to worry about.<br />

Row 1: RS, K1 *yo, k3, K3tog, K3, yo, K1* repeat<br />
Row 2: WS, Purl<br />
That's it, just repeat those 2 rows till your desired length! I did 3 balls with a fringe about 6 in. <br />
It's a loose knit, remember the looser the work the more drape it will have. <br />
<br />
At the same time weaving in the day time, in the evening I'm knitting a cardigan with Lotus Mimi (the Mink) yarn, double strand and a size 9 needle. This one will be interesting the pattern is developing as I go so we shall see how it will turn out! Pictures will come soon.<br />
<br />

It seems a year slips by in a
blink of an eye,
so much happens we almost forget what projects we started 2013 with. It seem such a long time ago. <br />
Looking back to the beginning of 2013 I tried my hand with weaving. I purchased the "Knitters Loom" from Ashford and love it, then I borrowed a 4 shaft table loom and wow the possibilities. I am now more and more curious about it. To me its another way to enjoy all the yarns that I have accumulated. Especially the very fine weights.<br />
I do knit more then any other craft. I find it relaxing, sit back a good movie and off I go in my own world.<br />
The curiosity of weaving, I suspect will grow in 2014 working with a loom making cloth, It is so fascinating how a string becomes cloth either knit, crochet or weave. Just love all the results. <br />
<br />
What do you for see yourselves doing in 2014? Will you want to learn a new craft/hobby? Its a great way to keep you young and happy!!<br />
<br />
Happy New Year Everyone!!<br />
