Scarves to Vests

Week 5 = Cataloging Patterns

Day 3 = January 31, 2014

     When looking through my patterns, I have found a huge variety and a long list of ideas that have come from these fabulous patterns and talented designers. To continue where we left off yesterday, I will be showing you patterns from Scarves to Vests.

Scarf

Un-Biased Scarf by Cheryl Beckerich

This pattern was eye catching. The combination of colors and diagonal slant makes it a mind bending pattern.

Shawl

“To Zola With Love”Shawl by Kay Meadors

I have 3 hanks of red/black Mink and am going to do this shawl. I love in the patterns direction that the designer said the real name of this piece is “To ______ With Love” meaning the name of whoever the shawl is being made for gets put in the blank. So I will be making “To Me With Love.”

Shrug

Chickadee Shrug by Tanis Gray

I am fascinated by shrugs. I have several patterns that are long and short-sleeved. A shrug could be very handy to have for a little coverage on a spring evening.

Slippers

Cozy Cosette Footsies by Julie O’Neil

These slippers look so warm and toastie. I like the pattern on the top of the foot. It is very intriguing.

Socks

Socks with JacquardPattern by Regia

I have just learned how to knit socks. Knitting with 2 colors is a dream of mine. I will get there one day.

Sweater

Covington by Melissa Leapman

I love Melissa Leapman and this pattern. My mom and I both saw this pattern at the Stitches East Conference last year and fell in love with it right away. I absolutely love V-neck sweaters and have had problems finding open neck patterns.

Top

Chain Letter by Sandi Rosner

 

This top is very appealing because of the textured green and blue design. It's a perfect example of how to add depth to a pattern.

Toys

The Parlor Cat by Sara Kellner

  

One of these days I am going to make this for my mother-in-law. She doesn't even know how to turn on a computer so I can freely list any and all projects meant for her. She and her husband have about 8 cats so this would be a welcome addition without the added labor.

Vest

Sexy Vesty by Theresa Gregorio

 When I lose 50 pounds, I will make and wear this vest. I love the diamond pattern on the front and again the V-neck.

     So this concludes the patterns on my computer. Tomorrow I will pull out my 3-ring binder and show you what treasures I have there.

Question of the Day

Which of these patterns are you most inspired to knit?
