Have you seen our Knitting VCast?

Our latest episode is currently being edited from our field trip to NYS Sheep and Wool Festival at our site for the Video Podcast  http://letsknit2gether.com


While there, I picked up 3 handspindles and some fiber to learn how to spin my own yarn and I bought some beautiful handpainted rayon yarn that will make a fantastic shawl..  I also ran into Galina Khmeleva who taught me about Orenburg Shawls.


We’ve been so busy getting our episodes done that I haven’t had much chance to catch up on my blog for a while. 


Currently working on:


Clapotis
t took me weeks to finally find the yarn that would be satisfying and then I got a glipse of this Noro Silk Garden in what has to be the best fall colors.  I found it in Carmel, CA (yeah that’s right Clint Eastwood’s hideout) while I was traveling on business.



I’ll post pictures after more progress.


Fetching
I just completed the knitty.com Fetching fingerless gloves pattern in an off white.  These are great!  I bought 4 balls of the Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran, not realizing that one ball is sufficient for a pair.  So I made 2 pairs and I’m working on a third!


DK Weight Navy Blue Vest
After several months of working on the navy blue vest, I’ve finished the back and I am on the front of the vest at the point where I’ve decreased for the armholes and I’m currently decreasing for the vneck.  It’s coming along fine.   I still think I can be finished in time for Christmas.
