It has been decided!
Monday, August 7th, 2006Tags: Fair Isle, Future Knitting Plans, Somewhat Cowl
After all that searching for pretty shawl patterns, I have realized that my mother is not at all a shawl wearer. She prefers squares to triangles and moss stitch to lace, so I will be knitting her a sweater. I did a lot of searching for tops this weekend and then I showed them all to her (there must have been at least thirty). She finally settled on the Somewhat Cowl, which coincidentally is an oily, lust-filled fantasy of mine. I will knit one for her and then one for me. We will be handknit twins! It will be extremely fantastic.
Runners-Up:
- Rainbow jacket in double tread Alpaca
- Cardigan and Brooch in Alpaca and Glitter
- Pullover in Paris
- Fair Isle Cardigan
- Sonnet
- Festive
- Cinxia
- Bristow


I love the Somewhat Cowl pattern, been trying to decide if I’m up to knit a sweater for myself yet or not
Excited to see both of yours!

[...] Even if it means spending $100 on Blue Sky Alpaca and Silk for a sweater. Gulp. [...]
