Trinigan

Karen finished her Trinigan. She used Cascade 220 Heathers and Noro Akari.

Thank you for sharing Karen. Your cardigan is gorgeous. Yes, I need to get back to mine. Karen reminded me on the phone last week 😘

From Andrea Mowry

I often begin the design process by turning to my closet and looking for gaps in my wardrobe. For years I have been wanting a pull-on-over-anything jacket style cardigan with wide sleeves and easy worn-open style. But make it fashion - with a marled back drop and color changing mosaic colorwork! 

This cardigan is knit from the bottom up, seamlessly except for underarms. The body and yoke are worked flat and the sleeves are picked up and knit in the round. The colorwork is achieved using the Mosaic knitting method.

You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry.

We have an order of Knitting Barber Cords arriving later this week. All colours will be back in stock.

Say goodbye to waste yarn and hello to these amazing hollow plastic cords.

The cords are made of silicone and come in a set of three, packaged in a tin box [diameter 68 mm] with logos on top and colour sticker on bottom.

One set contains 1* ~150 cm (60 inch) & 2* ~75 cm (30 inch) cords.

Suitable for 2.25 mm – 7 mm needles. Will work best with pointier needles rather than dull needle tips.

Firmly press the tip of the cord onto your needle (~1 cm) and start sliding your knitting on or off the cord and remember to check that your joint is secured all the time.

When your stitches are in place, then gently remove the cord from the needle by pushing it off with your fingertip or nail, do not pull the cord off.  

Just pop it gently like an expensive champagne cork.

Another square is finished. This is 438. I thought that the colour might be too bright but it turned out great.
 

Now some Law & Order, tea and knitting.
