January Knitting

 

Pattern: Basic Cabled Mittens
Designer: Amy O'Dell; Knit from detailed notes supplied by leanney
Yarn: Cascade 220 Superwash
Color: Black
Needles: Circular - 4.0 mm

I liked Melissa's dusty rose mittens so much that I knit a pair for myself in black.

 

Pattern: Strokkur

Designer: Ysolda Teague

Yarn: Létt-Lopi

Color: Black Heather - 8513

Needles: Circular - 4.5 mm

 

This is my second Strokkur pullover. I find black garments very difficult to photo. The black yarn is actually darker than shown in the photo. No end of editing would give me the exact shade. The mittens are also a much darker black.

 

 

Pattern: Nai-Nai's Favorite Dish Cloth

Designer: Ali Crockett

Yarn: Bernat Handcrafter Cotton Stripes

Colour: 1410

Needles: Circular - 5.0 mm

 

I really like hand knit cotton dishcloths. They are pretty, can be laundered in hot water, and are very durable.
