Something finally for me . . .


sorry the pics suck, camera phone, my good camera has to go to the shop) The first pics color is way more accurate.


Pattern: Calorimetry
Source: Knitty
Materials: Araucania's Nature Wool Chunky | 100% Wool
Source: RAKed Stash
Color: Deep Green | Color Number: 20 looks more like 107 I don't have a ballband to tell you for sure
Needles: US 8 (5.00mm) | US 10 (6.00mm) for Bind Off | ( Knitpicks 24" Options circulars
Started: April 10, 2007 | Finished: April 11, 2007

My fastest project to date and it hurt to do. I only had four rows left and the bind off and weaving in left this morning. I love the look but think I may need to make another in a different color that is more contrasting to my blonde. I have a dark wine red that I could use and I just may do it soon since the cold weather doesn't want to leave. I also may go down a needle size to make it a little smaller other than that it's great and Ju wants one now too.

  1. Well, darn, the pictures aren't showing up. Pattern looked cool though.

    I hadn't seen the RAK'ed stash before - wow, that's some beautiful yarn.

  2. Sorry to hear the pics aren't working, they're fine on this end, I wonder whats up.

    The pattern was super easy and looks really nice.

    I thought so too, I'm excited to find something to knit with it.

  5. Looks good! I had this one on my winter list but I didn't get around to it. I'll be sure to make one for fall though!
