Historical version 35 of Kake's Projects (view current version)
Currently on the go
See Kake Makes blog for all the boring details of what I did when.
- Marna's cardie - Sonnet cardigan for Marna - 2-ply red yarn with glitter thread (ebay) photo - held with the black Monte Cristo (cotton/acrylic mix, feels like brushed cotton sheets!) that I got from ebay.
- Noro coat - knitted one skein, need to buy more
- black fishnet crochet jumper - need to correct second sleeve, undo neck edging, sew in sleeves, extend armhole slightly, redo neck edging
- lilac long-sleeved top - front and back done, working on second sleeve
- purple crochet baby trousers for Katy - need to attach poppers
- strawberry baby hat for Katy (needs sewing together (must find yarn))
- bright pink baby jumper for Katy - need to sew on buttons
- crochet socks - really finished, and have been worn, but I want to put some elastic in and maybe make the cuffs longer
Reasonably firm plans
- choker for doop - he wants the anthracite beads; I need to buy more
- jumper for Nick - green acrylic chenille I got from ebay
Messing about with
- Patons green 100% cotton chenille - will probably knit into a jumper, maybe using that Jarol pattern I've had for ever, maybe not photo (I have 10 x 50g balls bought from ebay)
Patterns to try
- Toe-up short-row toe socks (knitting)
- Toe-up plain knitted socks
- Yet another sock
- Big gents' pullover (knitting) - maybe in Velvet Touch
- 'bob' sweater from knitty.com
- Sailing pullover (knitting, I don't have the pattern)
- 'Sonnet' sweater from knitty.com - side-to-side cardigan - I like the lower picture with fewer, larger buttons.
