Sleeves! and the great Cuff-Down Smack-Down..

The never-ending collared tee has Sleeves!!!!!

 

I might actually be able to get to the "collared" part of it pretty soon!  These raglan sleeves were added by casting-on stitches on the sides, and then working decreases.  Pretty cool, and the first time I've done them like this.

Other than that, I finished my second bobbin of the Malina, and only have to ply them together before I can start on the neck warmer.

 

I took ten pictures and they were all crappy, so be kind to me!!!  ;)

And On-Holds are almost done too, but they pretty much look the same as last time, and I knit past my scheduled time this morning . . . and Paul was waiting in the car . . . so - no picture of them (and no combing of the hair until I got to work again......)  I really must take a look at this schedule I have.  There has got to be more time for knitting and spinning in there...  he he

I'm also going to try my hand again at designing a lace sock for Knitting Purls/Knit-a-While Cuff-Down Smack-Down.  Be kind to me.....

I really like that tee, Dani. And your spinning is gorgeous.
I'm so happy you'll be participating in the Smack-Down. We'll be kind--I promise.

Danielle,
I have to say that the tee is looking great! (not my color, but hey it's not for me, LOL).
I have been thinking about the Smack-Down, too, but I've only designed REALLY simple socks, so don't know if I could compete against all you really great designers.
And, I love, love, love that yarn - the colors are just ones that are some of my favs.

Another sock pattern! Yay!!!

You always do such wonderful work, Dani. I really think the sleeves on that sweater are really neat! I really hadn't thought about raglan increases being worked the other way, so now my brain is churning churning churning!

And the fluffy bits look really nice - I can't wait to see what they ply up to be!

The Collard Tee is looking great! Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Even though the picture of the Malina is blurry, I bet it will look great plied up. Can't wait to see it! I finished up my yarn last night, but trying to finish up the Nanner socks before I cast on for the neck warmer.

I've been considering designing a sock pattern for that, too. Just this morning I got an idea, so I want to play with that and see how it goes. Did you know Berocco is having a deign contest for socks/items knit with sock yarn? Details are here: http://www.berroco.com/webimage_library/beta/knitbits_300/entryForm.html

I think whatever design you come up with will be great! :)
