Mood:  a-ok

I have 3 new patterns ready for pattern testers to do their magic.  The first is called Step Up Stripes because it is a bit harder than my normal faux-hard pattern.  I knit this version last winter and have a second one in hibernation in a much plainer yarn that I think shows the pattern better. 

Step Up Stripes

I dyed this dk weight wool yarn as a class demonstration of using a non-favorite color pink and making it attractive.

This reversible 7 row pattern scarf also has an option for picot cast on and cast off which I have on the beige alpaca/cotton blend I'm knitting.

Another scarf that I completed in April or May is called Reversibility! scarf.  I'm still not quite sure why this scarf is reversible.  It is a 2 row pattern and each pattern row is different.  I have another version half done in Pagewood sock bites.  This is quite an easy pattern--no harder than seed stitch.  In the proper yarn this pattern would look masculine. 

I don't have a picture of the third pattern yet, which is probably the easiest of all called Seed Stripes.

If you'd like to be a pattern tester, please email me at lindas5252@yahoo.com  If not I'll have it in print after Labor Day.

Back to the dyepot--I've got some cool things going on
