Kauni and Arisaog


Ruth Sorenson has done it again- another beautiful sweater for the Kauni yarn. And Shelley, from Fun Knits is carrying it!!! Just go to her blog-see my sidebar- and she will send you to the right place to buy the pattern!!!And Arisaig (from knitty.com) is coming along. I am using The Sheep Shop Wensleydale Longwool-DK-and I have played around a bit with the numbers. I added a mosaic knitted band to separate the ribbed bottom from the lacy top. And I have been playing with the numbers to make a better fitting "cup" in the top of the sweater (the girls need their space, you understand). Stay tuned-if it works, I will give you the numbers. If not, it will be a lesson in what NOT to do, and then it will dance itself into the Tinking Pond!!!!
Had a horrible start to the school year. I won't go into it, but suffice it to say, pretty bleak. Let's see how week two goes. Wish me luck!

I am sorry to hear the school didn't get off on the right foot. I hope this week is better for you!

So sorry to hear about the dreadful start to the school year. Am so hoping that week 2 goes better--it usually does for my daughter, but she's a student. Welcome to the Knitting in Ontario Ring!

I really like that Kauni cardigan. Did you get the exact same colors ? I got myself some Kauni this summer, so I am curious to see how this one works out !
