Twinneedle: Episode 3: To tired to sew (CONTEST!!!)

Find the episode here or via Itunes!

Work in Progress

Instead of knitting more socks for Socktoberfest I cast on

Hitchhiker by Martina Behm out of some handspun (by yt, roving by Spinning Martha a christmas gift from Madhatter)

and

Eiki by Janel Laidman (who also designed the lovely Rivendell Socks!) out of the two yarns, that I used for my Akimbo by Stephen West

Finished stuff

My Trellis is done!! And by now I had E. modelling the sweater (12 month size, E. is 15 months, can you tell she is very skinny?) I think she looks totally adorable in it :)




The waves and piers socks are also done but I need to take a picture....

Spinning

No spinning but I had problems with my swatch for the Vineyoke cardigan and my skew socks...


Sewing

Still sewing the same skirt as last episode but I'm making progress and I talk about how I made a pattern for the lining

Twintalk

We went to see the peditarian and E. is underweight. Please keep your fingers crossed, that she does not suffer from celiac disease

Made in Europe

I talk about MariaDenmark new shop and she has kindly offered to sponsor a contest.

Work in Progress

Knitting:

Still knitting on the Trellis cardigan and the waves and piers socks for my Dad but made good progess!

And I'm swatching! Next on my needles will be Skew from Knitty and maybe (if I got row-gauge) the Vine Yoke Cardigan by Ysolda Teague (Twist Collective)

I'm talking a bit about Socktoberfest and the big bad socktober ssk on the stash and burn group on ravelry

Sewing

I finished making my muslin for my Simplicity 2451 skirt and did cut out the "real" skirt

Spinning

I did no spinning at all. Shame on me.


Life in Germany

I talk a bit about Plum Butter and Laternelaufen



Made in Germany

I wax poetic about my favourite spinning supply online store: Das Wollschaf
