Finished my Ishbel. Made size large, but I left out one repeat of section A before section C (because I forgot and realized too late). There’s also an error along the spine increases where somehow I have an extra hole.
But I was too lazy to tink back and had no lifelines in place. Apart from those 2 errors, I really like it, the Malabrigo Lace is simply divine. Now I want to make another (error-free) one. Or cast on for Damson? Or….
The Interweave Crochet Fall Preview is up. For the first time, I have not a garment, but an accessory in it, the Apple Cider Mittens.
Here’s a picture I took before sending them off:
I edited my Kerchief Bib pattern that was, so far, only available on my old blog in a very “so here’s what I did” kind of way. Now I’ve made it into a real pattern pdf on Ravelry, kind of as a learning experience for writing knitting patterns. Here’s the link to download the free pdf on Ravelry:
I also made up another 3 bibs for the occasion.
German and French versions are coming soon, too.
Baby L somehow has loads of tops, but hardly any pants. So I sewed those from an Ottobre pattern. It took me some time to understand the instructions, but that’s only due to my lack of experience. Tracing the pattern was quite a challenge as they put so many of them on one sheet.
Good luck finding your pattern on here.

They actually fit really well over the diaper. Maybe I’ll manage to get a modelled pic one of these days.
