Ignorantblissknits.blogspot / Pinterest. Quince & Co. Untitled. Craft in Style: Gifts Galore. I've been in a knitting for gift giving frenzy, which has left me little time to think about my posts, but I decided to show you what I've been making.
I've been making an item for myself, and then duplicating it in different colors for gifts. This is a long hand warmer I made for myself. The knitting pattern is called Dashing which can be found on Ravelry, or on knitty. Then I created it in a creme superwash wool for my sister. My other sister requested a short one in green. I also made a short one for my friend for her birthday in yellow. As if this wasn't keeping me busy enough, I've made a few chunky scarves to give out as gifts. Category: Knitting » hey porkchop!

Daylight time in Winter is short. So short, that I waited at least 2 weeks before I could take pictures of my lovely Lace Legwarmers! So after school, I grab the camera and took advantage of the last sunshine rays... They're perfect over leggings, with a short winter skirt, or even with skinny jeans! Narzuta na drutach. Simple Bauhaus Throw Knit a blanket inspired by the clean lines of this early modernist art movement.
By Lisa Shobhana Mason On any given Saturday, you might find me strolling around a museum or gallery. I enjoy viewing artists’ unique interpretations of universal themes and elements, and I’m drawn to the repetition of various designs throughout the ages. From the bold, outsider art vibe of the Gee’s Bend quilts to the vivacious designs of the late 1960s, great artworks and movements influence and inspire many of my pieces. When I designed this blanket, I was thinking of the Bauhaus art movement with its stern and unadorned style. My aim was to create a piece that is sleek and clean, as well as moody and sumptuous. Materials Directions Step 1: Knit. Step 2: Finish. This project is excerpted from YarnPlay (North Light Books), by Lisa Shobhana Mason.
