Baby Hat

Here's another great baby gift knocked out in just a few hours.

It is Lori's pattern that is available in the store using Debbie Bliss Rialto in pink and brown.

I did the first 10 rows in pink, then switched to brown when I started the purl rows. Part way up the decreases, I switched to the pink again with one row of every other stitch pink and then dropped the brown completely for the rest of the hat. It is all washed now and once it is dry, it will go off to the new baby girl of a co-worker of mine.

Political Gnomes?



I have to admit, I am as sick of the political ads and campaigns as anyone but who can resist this! Marguerite's friend made this for her, the detail is incredible!

Hangin' with my GNOMEBOYS!!




Marie Mayhew has done it again. They are so cute and easy you can do them up for any holiday or even special theme. Jill did a Harley Davidson gnome!




I can't wait to do the santa.

THAI DIE!!!!


I just finished the proof of this new novel by Monica Ferris. The Tangled Skein will be co-sponsoring her publishing event at the Locust Steet Hotel in St. Peter. Her characters make their way to St. Peter and other nearby areas. It was great fun to read, and has alot of local flavor. Join us and get your own "signed" copy on December 2.

Original Tangled Skein patterns!



Have you seen the new Tangled Skein original patterns at the store?

This is Lori's pattern for a baby hat that I made with Debbie Bliss Rialto in "punkin" colors. This is my first time with Debbie Bliss yarn and I am IN LOVE! :-)

There's also an adorable beret pattern by Sally that is next on my "to be knit" list for an equally adorable niece.

There may have been some new bags (sewn by Sally) that came home with me as well - those darn enablers!

Eastside Ribbed Scarf



This is another Sarah design and is beautiful in Blue Sky Alpacas Suri Merino. Looks fabulous on Nadine and she didn't really want to take it off, it feels sooooo good!

Pattern is available at the shop.

Who said Lori can't finish a sweater!


OK so it's an ornament, at least I finished the sleeves.

Addie's Jacket



















I knitted this cute little jacket for great niece - Addie.

She is 5 months old and just a ham!!!

I used stampedo pink. And the pattern, if I remember correctly was in a Debbie Bliss book.
