I combined two meetings because, for some reason, I didn’t take very many photos! Don’t know why except at Michele’s house, there were only three of us–Michele, Linda and me. It must’ve been a busy Monday.
At Marylane’s house, we talked a lot and caught up on our travels and goings-on. I had just got back from a vacation to Oregon and had a lot to say. Deb and Julie were there, both working on on-going projects. Deb was knitting Glenn’s sweater that she had put down for the summer(too much hiking to do), and Julie was working on a pillow top.
Busy beez.
For some reason, I got a closeup of Deb. Just because she’s so stinkin’ cute, I guess.
The sweater is getting larger!
Francy was there with a stash of leftover yarn to knit a hat. I think these are leftovers from the monster pants she knitted this summer.
I like the colors.
Linda is working on a tote bag that she’ll felt. This is the bottom of the bag. I thought at first that it was a slipper. Nope.
Well, it does look like a slipper…
Marylane is knitting a throw using a log cabin-ish pattern. The squares are added by picking up the edges that are perpendicular to the one you just finished. I like it.
I like the way the squares look.
At Michele’s house the next week, Linda brought a triangular scarf that she finished. She had run out of yarn at the final edge, and put it away for a while. Then she had a brainstorm and used some leftover yarn from another project that matched the scarf. Instead of merely binding off, she made an edging of picots that gave the scarf more texture. Looks great!
I made a scarf similar to this in a solid color.
Michele is making a skirt. I love the colors of this yarn and I especially like the way the darts(decreases) make a pretty pattern.
Michele always wonders if the skirt will fit her. Of course it will!
That was it, Castoffs. Fall has fallen and the first snow, too! For next week, Carol and I switched because she had to go out of town, so see you at my house!
Keep those needles blazing and stay warm!
