  • winners!

    Whoops, sorry it’s taken me so long to get to this! When I went to get the names of the winners, I realized that in the site redesign I’d forgotten to add a bit of code that numbers the comments for me to make it easy for draws! Well, that’s all fixed now.

    winners of my book!

    Without further ado, the names of the winners are Heather N, Nada and Jennifer (comment #19). I’ve emailed the winners, so you should get your book shortly!

    Also, since it seems like it’s been a rather long time since I had an FO to show, here’s the mini Simple Yet Effective shawl out of Noro Kureyon Sock.

    Noro Mini Shawl
    Pattern: my Simple Yet Effective shawl
    Yarn: Noro Kureyon Sock, 1 skein
    Needles: 3.5 mm Addis
    Finished Size: approx. 45″ across the top, 19″ deep

    love those stripes!

    I’m reformatting my pattern into a little pattern card, memo size (half the size of letter paper) to sell at lettuce knit along with the yarn. It looks like this, which I’m quite happy with:

    (ETA: I’ve decided to offer the pattern for sale, so I’ve taken down the photo of the pdf.)

    Since it’s a free pattern and all I’m not going to worry about it if you guys want to decipher the pattern from that screen cap to knit it! I just wanted to have something small and inexpensive as a pattern to accompany the Kureyon sock (or any sock yarn, for that matter). Now I just have to figure out how to print them properly!

    It’s quite a little shawl, but great for an accent scarf.

    And it photographs awfully nicely!
