Eastside Stitchers Come In Out of the Cold

Hello,  Look! Skeinherder knit a cat gnome to watch over our stitching group along with her Husband and Wife gnomes.

Eastside Stitchers met at Crossroads Mall for our regular Wednesday Stitch Night.  Our group is so full and busy now.  We always need to push tables together.  I just love how much fun we have.

Ellyol was there but had to leave early... And I did not grab a photo of her latest project.  Sorry, Ellyol.

In addition to bringing her new Cat Gnome, Skeinherder brought her Honeycomb Mesh Scarf by Churchmouse Yarn and Teas. Her yarn is Firwood Farm Alpacas, Alpaca and Silk.

Tara1682 has made huge progress on her French Press Felted Slippers.  I mean huge progress on her HUGE slippers.

Anerenbe started a new hat, Mezwolam by Tina Hees.  This is a bit of a deja vu since she just finished one of these hats, but since she is using different yarn on this one, Malabrigo Aroyo, does it count as a completely new project?

We shall check in on Anerenbe at the end of the night and see her progress.

Vanesapolo was working on her mitered mittens by Elizabeth Zimmerman.  These are from the book, Knitters' Almanac.

Vanesapolo also brought some gorgeous Yark yarn to show and tell.

MsWiz was knitting an entrelac cowl.  She is taking an Craftzy course.  It is really pretty.  The cowl I mean.

Colleen was starting a new baby  blanket in lavender.  Ha.  I know, we are thinking we have seen this before.  But, Colleen makes these blankets for kids who were born addicted to drugs, and there are some strick specifics on how to make them.  You have to use very soft yarn that is in soft colors so as to not over stimulate the kids.  Her yarn and color choice are perfect.

Our shy new knitter, Angel, is finally allowing me to debut her current project.  She is working on a pair of fingerless mitts.

GwenS was knitting a Super Secret Cowl.  Enough said.  I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise.

Wajio brought her mystery kal socks.  The designer is KnitPurlHunter, and the socks are called Crimple.

Amigirl was still working on her Sprucey Lucy socks in Hazelknits.

 

Redbird1 has almost finished the body of her Fiber BF Jared Flood's Eternity Cardigan.  She is still on track to have the sweater finished in time for Madrona next month.

Finally, for a bit more Show and Tell, Skeinherder brought her January socks for SKA's January Challenge

Redbird1 brought her newest yarn purchases.  Most of these are from Portland, Oregon.

OOOOOOOOOOOO.   AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.  Beautiful yarn.

Hrvdmnky came near the end.  She brought 2 bags full of her show and tell doilies.

Hrvdmnky also brought her current socks to knit .

That's all for tonight, except for a second check of Anerenbe's progress:

Amazing!

That's all for tonight.  Can't wait to get together on Friday morning.

Peace.
