    Hey, it’s a knit outfit!

    Ubernatural
    Pattern: Ubernatural from Magknits, by Glampyre
    Yarn: Katia Pisco, from Elann, double stranded, somewhere around 7-8 skeins
    Needles: Denise US 15 (10 mm)
    Started: May 12, 2005
    Finished: May 24, 2005

    A super fast knit. I should’ve done another two increase rows if I wanted it to close over my bust properly, but oh well.
    Changes: lengthened the sleeves, lengthened total body, more increase rows, reduced ribbing, no body shaping, fewer buttons.

    Wavy Skirt
    Pattern: from Interweave Knits Spring 2005
    Yarn: Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece, “Candy Apple”, 4 skeins
    Needles: Denise US 5, 6, 7 (3.75, 4, 4.5 mm)
    Started: April 25, 2005
    Finished: May 24, 2005

    I made up a size between the two sizes given, and it’s a tad loose in the waist but with the drawstring it’s fine. Comfy – I think I’ll wear it today!
    Changes: made up a size, lengthened st st portion, double length chain drawstring.

    I’ve been doing some other, small stuff lately:

    I knit a swatch, for a skrit for my little sister.

    And I’m knitting a little scarf out of leftover Mango Moon recycled silk.

    Have a good day!
