Another rep of the patterning has been worked, but it isn't going very fast. There are now 261 stitches per row, that's quite a lot of knitting!

It turns out that the patterning I chose for the border is particularly hard to fit into the asymmetrical shape of this shawl. So, frogging and back to the drawing board.... to be continued!

As you can see, with my Zaanse Mosterd shawl, there has been some more progress. Once blocked, it will be so pretty!

I've measured the now dry shoulder piece and determined that there are indeed some significant changes needed....

#FlashbackThursday Duizendknoop is a shallow, triangle scarf, knit sideways. It features a simple garter stitch body, and a lovely triangle edging. A lovely and airy layering piece!

I have started the border patterning! I did find some issues in my chart for the second set of 8 rows in the repeat. But, I expect that it won't be very eventful to fix

It seems I will indeed have to redo my grading spreadsheet, draft pattern, and knitting. But, better to act on this now, than to end up with a sweater that does not fit as intended. To be continued!

#FlashbackThursday The Fuyu Persimmon shawl is very flexible, therefore I’ve included modification ideas in the pattern!

I made my Blauwe Branding stole-sized. It's very easy to change it to a different size, like a scarf, just reduce the number of cast-on stitches!

Blauwe Branding is now live! This design is perfect to use up smaller amounts of yarn in different colors. Or use a gradient yarn with long color runs instead!

Here, you can see the patterning taking shape. Aren't those wrapped stitches lovely?! However, I may have to work this piece all over again, because swatches are lying liars

Remember this shawl? The test knitting is done, so the pattern for this design will be released soon!

With an asymmetrical triangle, 150 g of fingering weight yarn typically makes a good-sized shawl. I have 200 g, so I need to ensure it doesn't get too big. I'll use self-striping for about 50 g, then switch to a lace pattern with the solid purple

I've knit a couple of more rows, the patterning is starting to show a bit better. I really love the kinds of patterning that give an undulating edge because of those strategically placed increases and decreases!

On this project, I did not do that much knitting these past few weeks. Still, with a couple of rows here and there, a project slowly grows

Yes, I've done a bit more knitting on the leafy border of the Big Round Shawl. There are currently 5 more leaves to knit. To be continued!

#FlashbackThursday A couple of years ago, I designed the Jade Clover Tunic. The version pictured here, is tunic length, but the pattern also contains info about modifications to make it a tee or a dress!

It has been a while since I posted an update on my bubble stitch La Rentrée sweater. I’ve finished the first sleeve, and started the second. I may also redo the rolled border on the body, I think I’d like it a couple of rounds deeper as in the sleeves
