What's on my needles?
Purple Skacel Babilona Fingerless Web Surfing Mitten and a One Skein Wonder Shawl for my god daughter - at her request. One
mitt done, one 1/4 of the way done, the OSW not even started (10/10/05).
A backpack, knit in the round, pattern is from my own little brain. Made of varigatged brown Lopi on size 10.5 US Addi Turbos
- mostly. Probably about 1/4 done right now (8/28/05).
100% wool blue, brown, orange Fortissa ribbed fingerless mitts, pattern from my head. One knitted and one about two inches
done. Knit in the round on mini 12 in addi turbos. (9/3/05) DONE
Recycled silk (from Saris) from Mango Moon scarf. Using Potatoe Chip Scarf Free Pattern from www.knitpicks.com. 2/3 of the
way done. On size 10 60 inch circulars handmade from an e-bay seller (I forget who). (DONE!!!)
Buy Yarn and Accessories
Local Harvest Wool and Fibers (support your local farmers)
Please, please, please support your local yarn store (LYS) before you order online!
Peace Fleece (Wool Yarn, Handmade Needles created by Russian and Americans together - unique business, great yarn!)
Mango Moon Yarns - created by Nepali Women coming out of abusive situations, if you can locate their hard to find knitting
needle they are worth it.
Knit Picks (good quality, inexpensive yarn and check out their book prices - free shipping over $30.00!)
World Knit (not the cheapest around, but they carry things no one else does - like mini circulars)
Yarn by the Bag - overstocks of good yarn cheap, but you have to buy a lot
