I finished my swatch......and my son loves it!! There are some long floats in the beginning but they are holding their shape.
A big 'Thank You!' to the yahoo group that helped me get past some concerns. I am now ready to write the sweater pattern so I can begin my son's sweater.

Very, very nice cap. You did a wonderful job! A matching sweater will be perfect, and how happy your son will be to have these beautiful gifts of love.
ReplyDeleteYou are writing patterns now??

mmm, I love the swatch/hat anyway.
Love you!
Hey Miss Scarlett and Vee, thank you for your wonderful comments!
ReplyDeleteMy son does truly appreciate the things I make him.
I didn't even think I was writing a pattern since it was for my son ~ but I guess I am!
It will be an experience as I venture on writing up the sweater.

What a wonderful idea for a swatch. It is beautiful. That is such creative thinking on your part. Great job! I have been wanting to learn Faire Isle. I started going to a knitting group in Seattle that has a Nordic theme. It has been so inspiring.
ReplyDeleteMaria, What a beautiful cap. I can't think of anything to say that hasn't already been said. Did they say you are a genius?
