The Aspen Wrap

 have been knitting like a busy bee!   I created my first wrap and I just love how it came out.  I knit this in Sirdar Snuggly which is a DK weight.  Soft, light and washable.  I just have to figure out what to name it.  I have to let it mull around in my head for a few days.

It was a joy to knit.  So versatile.  I can wear it as a wrap, a scarf, shawl, or cowl.  I am so excited!  I have to write down the pattern properly and I am thinking of listing it on Ravelry.   It is classic and will last many years to come through all the fashion changes the world can throw at it.  Everyone should have a piece like this in your closet.  Now for the pictures!




The Georgian Wrap



The Olympics have started and I have been glued to the TV.  Those of you that know me are familiar with my Olympics addiction.   I watch it all - even the boring events.  So during my long hours of watching I have been busy with my latest creation - The Georgian Wrap!

I like the bold classic blue and the ripple pattern to its collar.  Yes, it is even reversible!  It measures 12" wide and 80" long.  Soft and warm.  Made of 100%wool.  I decided to use a stockinette stitch to make the ripple stand out.  I know you just have to have one too!   Well the pattern is coming.  I am making sure that there are NO ERRORS like my last debacle.  Enjoy!
