Now that those are done, I've allowed myself to cast these on. This pattern is a Patron exclusive pattern from the Bakery Bears as part of their Knitting University video series. You can visit their website here for more details. I'm using the remainders of the skein which I used to make my daughter's Neville's Joy socks earlier this year. Will need to make contrasting heels and toes as I don't believe there is enough yardage left. 8/1: First sock ...

My Ravelry Project Page Pattern : Fire Side Chat Blanket by Molly Conroy (Link re-directs to Ravelry. As far as I can see, this pattern is not available elsewhere.) Cost : Free as a Ravelry Download Yarn : Lion Brand Pound of Love Yarn in Charcoal, Teal, Succulent, and Oxford Gray (1 skein each) Needle Size : 15mm Started : 7/1/2020 Finished : Notes : CO 97 to start. My cousin called a month or so ago and let us know that he and his wife are expecting their first child! Of course, I had to knit a blanket for them. Since we do not yet know if it will be a boy or girl, I wanted a pattern that is unisex. I found the Fire Side Chat Blanket by Molly Conroy. This blanket uses super bulky yarn, but I decided to use a worsted weight yarn held double to get a bulky weight and a use a smaller needle. Instead of striping the colors per the pattern, I will be marling the colors together, inspired by the Marl-a-long hosted by Amy from the Stranded Podcast (she talks about it in this video ) and my...
