Twisted Tambini is Fini!


This is a wonderful hat!! I am soooooooo thrilled with how it turned out. I just wish it was a little bigger. :) It's Sincero's Twisted Tambini that I was helping her test knit. It will be available on KnitPicks.com.

The yarn – Berroco Pure Merino – was a dream to work with. The cables really popped with it.
Mine looks like a miniature version of the pattern. There will be some lucky kid with a gorgeous hat soon.

Flattened view.

Can't wait for Sincero's next pattern!!!

Twisted Tambini Test Knit

This is a GREAT hat pattern!! I'm helping a friend -- Sincero -- test knit her original Twisted Tambini pattern. It's made it throught the first round for KnitPicks. YAY!!!!!!

I'm using Berroco's Pure Merino in Broyal. Love it!!! It's a worsted weight, wonderfully soft. KnitPick's Harmony circulars US 4 glide right through the yarn.

The band is done...now I'm working on the crown/hat portion.

Keep watching Sincero's blog for updates on her pattern.

New Project: Mock Argyle Socks

Happy Easter, everyone!!

To celebrate...I started a new project – Mock Argyle socks with Kertzer's On Your Toes Bamboo in Blue Denim. This yarn is squishy soft!!! Got the yarn from Yarntopia and the pattern from KnitPicks.com. It's a toe-up pattern. I've got the toes done for both socks. Tomorrow, I start the pattern.

It's a men's sock BUT I think it will make a great ladies' pant sock, too!

Wish me luck!!
