Dulaan knit-in
Posted in dulaan project, project spectrum, finished objects on May 28th, 2006
Yesterday, I swallowd my pride and returned to the place of my mortification. I am so glad I did, I had such a good time and I met so many nice, local knitters; several I knew from their blogs or from KALs. It was nice to be able to put a face to the names.
After the incident last weekend, since I had a whole ‘nother week before the knit-in, I started a small vest from the Warm Wollies pattern. I was able to finish it at the knit-in, it would have benefitted from a bit of blocking but, all things considered, I think it turned out well.
pattern: Warm Woolies Good Friends Cables Vest size 3-4
yarn: Knit Picks Wool of the Andies in Asparagus, doubled
needles: Boye Needle Master US10.5
cast on: May 20th  cast off: May 27th
notes: I changed the cable to one from Inspired Cable Knits, no reason in particular, just liked this one. It would have benefitted from a good blocking, but as the party was over at 6pm and I cast off at 6:15 or so, I decided it was fine without the blocking.
We all received cute little gift bags with a button, a magnet with Dulaan the alpaca on it and a stitch marker that Ryan and TMK made. Daughter wanted the stitch marker for fishing, I vetoed that idea.
Frankie was such a trooper with all us strangers invading her house, but she was all tuckered out by the end of the evening.
