Knitting at the Wild Ramp

We had an unusually big group today at the Wild Ramp.  And in addition, we had an unusually large number of finished projects to share.  Maybe because it is winter?  Or at least late fall.  But it definitely felt as if summer is over today.....knitting season....genealogy season....holiday season....

Betsy and I arrived at the same time.  Betsy was wearing her newest creation.




This gorgeous poncho is knit as a rectangle and then sewed in just one place:



I see many possibilities for this project!

Christine who was sitting very close to me today was working on a scarf.  This scarf uses a solid yarn and a variegated yarn in alternating stripes.  The knitter works from small stripes to much larger stripes as the project progresses.  But what I am trying to capture here is the GORGEOUS variegated yarn and how it works with the stripes.



I am playing with the ideas for Mary's twin's blanket and didn't want to loose the thought.

Betsy had already started her next project.



Her fabric looks exactly like that in the above photo



It is a mindless project, which is GOOD!

The yarn is Berroco Mileflore.  The pattern is Aldo by Berroco and made for this yarn.  It is called Jolana.  It is exceptionally pretty in person.  The pattern is filed in dropbox in shawls folder.  The color of the Berroco yarn is Terra



















And last but no least were Dar's socks.



I think that the pattern is Somebody's Teddy Bear from Mash.....Can't do it from memory tonight.
