I love the colours they chose for this KAL. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have made a cardigan for my niece - using <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/designers/wenche-roald">Wenche Roald</a>'s pattern <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lille-vinterstjerne">Lille Vinterstjerne</a>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The cardigan is worked bottom up, with a steek - of course.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Modifications: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ribbing k2, p2, instead of k1, p1. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
6 colours instead of 2 for the stranded patterns. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Added some more diamonds on the sleeves. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Worked the rest in a single colour instead of strips. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Added my own star pattern for the yoke. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So the finished cardigan looks quite different than the original, but it's always nice to have numbers and measurements to follow. And Wenche's patterns are always well written. </div>

<span style="background-color: ;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Last year I made a pair of mittens in the Winter Wollies KAL, using seven of the eight colours.

During Edinburgh Yarn Festival I knitted <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/torirot/spring-festival">this brown shawl</a>. It soon became one of my favourites, pretty and wearable as it was.

So I brought it with me to Shetland Wool Week, where I also casted on <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/torirot/velvet-rose-shawl">a different shawl,</a> in a Wensleydale wool from John Arbon. If I'm not mistaken, the yarn was a special batch that's not part of their usual yarns. Anyway, the yarn is soft and lovely to work with, a bit fluffy and shiny, like mohair. </div>

I loved my new shawl, even more as I mislaid the brwn shawl somewhere in Lerwick. At the moment, the new shawl also has an unknown location, but I'm hoping it will show up again. Luckily I have another skein of the yarn, but I'm not feeling like casting on another shawl just yet. </div>

This cowl was designed to make the most of the 8 colours of Jamieson & Smith 2ply jumper weight from the <a href="https://jamiesonandsmith.wordpress.com/2016/05/10/springsummer-kal-2016/">Spring and Summer KAL 2016</a>. It uses just under one ball of each colour and can be wrapped twice around your neck to keep you warm.<br />
<br />
Besides that, it's a fun knit.<br />

I usually am not a fan of Superwash yarns - but for a fitted sweater like this it has one advantage, well two, maybe, when you include the fact that it can be easily washed: It is not as warm as a woolly wool sweater would have been, so it's easier to use. Especially since my husband and I do not agree on the temperature inside the house. I think it's perfectly normal to wear a wool cardigan, while he wants to wear a t-shirt only. I'm sure you all support me!torirothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16807940618405854011noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4777206434332803300.post-46372498153632954972016-08-09T20:37:00.000+02:002016-08-09T20:37:12.171+02:00S for summer and shawls *3*<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I call this shawl "Norsk sommer", which means Norwegian summer. It is inpired by the colours of summer in Norway. Originally I made it as a baby blanket, but as it was growing I saw that it would make a lovely shawl when folded double. </div>

I have used yarn from my stash, except for a couple of green balls that I bought to add more variety to the greens. It is all 2ply fingering yarn, Rauma Finullgarn, Sjølingstadgarn, J&S 2ply jumper weight and probably some other as well. </div>

I bought this lovely red yarn at<a href="http://torirotsstitches.blogspot.no/2016/04/photo-album-from-edinburgh-page-4.html"> Edinburgh Yarn Festival. </a> It's a<a href="http://www.ullcentrum.com/garn-tillbehor/ullgarn/2-tradigt-ullgarn/"> Swedish yarn</a> that I hadn't seen before. Extraordinarily red, soft and woolly. The link is for the Swedish site. I bought the yarn from an English based shop run by a couple, I believe she is Swedish and he is British. I bought two skeins, planning for a shawl - every woman needs a red shawl, doesn't she?</div>

The skein in the photo is the darker - dyed on grey yarn. There was only one skein left of that, so I got one brighter skein dyed on white too. Then I had to figure out how to combine the two.</div>

I didn't use a pattern for this shawl. I started with one stitch and worked a triangle, as I learnt from <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/incorporate/aestlight-shawl">Gudrun Johnstons Aestlight pattern</a>.<br />

I knitted until I almost ran out of the bright red colour, then cast off the triangle. I picked up the yarn over loops on the sides and worked a feather and fan pattern, based on <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/northmavine-hap">Kate Davies' Northmavine Hap pattern</a> from her book, <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/sources/colours-of-shetland">Colours of Shetland</a>. When I was happy with the border lenght, I cast off. </div>

I first så this shawl on the <a href="http://lasknittingamigas.com/">Knitting Amigas podcast</a>. It's called <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/golden-sand">Golden Sand</a> and is designed by Joji Locatelli, and is made for the charity <a href="http://hda.hu/portfolio/pages/cataracta-blog/">Sight is Life</a> working in Congo DR, a country that I actually visited back in 1988. I liked the shawl and the project, and when the pattern was published just before my summer holiday, I decided it would be perfect holiday knitting, lots of garter stitch, and a little lace. </div>

The small houses just popped up in my head as I was knitting, and when I was planning the gusset class, I decided to use them again. I have made this new pattern specially for this class. It features different thumb gusset constructions, and lots of small houses, where you can play with your colours if you want.</div>

Back home I found my Jamieson & Smith Jumper Weight yarn, and picked a colour palette that I liked. It's a lovely <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/crofthoose-hat">pattern</a>, and I'm very happy with <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/torirot/crofthoose-hat">my hat</a>. (I'm also happy that summer temperatures are finally here, and that I probably won't need it until September in Shetland). </div>

I decided that would be a good opportunity to make a pair of mittens that someone else had designed, and I chose <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/giraffes-at-sunset-mittens">Giraffes at Sunset Mittens</a> by <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/designers/erica-mount">Erica Mount</a>, which had been a favourite pattern since the first time I saw it.<br />

Lovely the pattern, and it was so fun to knit and "paint" with my different colours. I have not tried them out in the cold, because spring is here, but I suspect they are really warm!</div>

But I almost finished this pair of mittens, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and now, on March 6th they're done, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with all ends woven inn too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I actually gave them away in a birthday party on the 24th of February </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- so I had to finish! The pattern is my own, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/en-smak-av-muhu">En smak av Muhu</a> (A taste of Muhu), </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
published in the Swedish online magazine <a href="http://www.avmaskat.se/">Avmaskat </a>this winter. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After six months I can self publish it on Ravelry, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so it will be available in Norwegian and English this autumn. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But if you read Swedish, the Magazine is good value, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with seven patterns alltogether. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIdZRMYHHsW-M9SAej3VoZIy3C7SvV35NZz3yP0JpG4aV2FiE5CY2ObytwMcE2hFPUnAZerfuHuFkjCqUOBe_8mQ-OUriNkdXxNc3bJwx5dZBlCQqO-FHyLv9kpIaR5qBJSW80tPl-2bQ/s1600/en-smak-av-muhu_24788003114_o.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIdZRMYHHsW-M9SAej3VoZIy3C7SvV35NZz3yP0JpG4aV2FiE5CY2ObytwMcE2hFPUnAZerfuHuFkjCqUOBe_8mQ-OUriNkdXxNc3bJwx5dZBlCQqO-FHyLv9kpIaR5qBJSW80tPl-2bQ/s320/en-smak-av-muhu_24788003114_o.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I did start the second sleeve of my <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/torirot/blomekrans-vest-2">Blomekrans sweater</a>, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so now I just have to transport myself down to the cuff. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I now I should have been able to finish this in February, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but as often before, a secret mitten project came in the way. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Finishing and mending in March, then? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I <i>will </i>finish the sweater, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and perhaps some more secret mittens. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

I have mended the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/torirot/lillehammer-mittens">Lillehammer mittens</a> (above) , the stripy, felted mittens (under), and a couple of more. Not a lot of work, but something that has been waiting to be done for ages. </div>
