Theyarn
is RedHeart, the pattern is Sashay. I found it rather
frustrating to knit because you picked up the yarn
on the edge & it was hard to get a rhythm going.
I made 2, one with 10 stitches & the other 6st.
I prefer the narrower ruffle. |

This
is a vest made from Plymouth Yarn Baby Alpaca Grande,
Plymouth pattern N026. It is a very easy one-size-fits-all
pattern.

The
pattern is Basketweave Scarf by Ann Budd, originally
published on Knitting Daily, Fall 2004. The
pattern was actually free, part of Knitting Daily's free
knitting patterns they routinely offer in their e-mail
newsletters. It is pictured on a man, but I
thought it was a very pretty woman's scarf!
The notes from Ann Budd say she used the Double Basket
Pattern from Barbara Walker's Treasury of Knitting.
The yarn is from the Queensland Collection, Rustic
Tweed, 63% wool, 27% alpaca, and 10% donegal, and
I bought it at the Knitcraft Yarn Shop in Independence,
MO. We were visiting the Truman Museum, Home
and Farm, which were fascinating to see on a weekend
short trip. I highly recommend them.

The necklace
is in "101 Designer one-skein Wonders", it requires
1.75 oz of cotton yarn, or your choice of similar
weight and 178 (approx.) size 6 seed beads.
It is best to get a "good" bead that has uniform holes.

Pattern
of the shawl is the "Lazy Katy" by Birgit Freyer.
The yarn I used is the Chroma fingering (396 yds)
from KnitPicks in the color "Pool party" . I wanted
my shawl to be larger thus it used up a little more
than 1 skein (~ 440 - 460 yds) of the Chroma.
I knitted the stockinette part up until I had 181
sts, then decreased 1 st in the middle and started
with the lace part. It is helpful to use stitch markers
with the lace part.
