My knitting mojo has been just as strong as my sewing mojo of late. I have recently become a podcast viewer. I’ve subscribed to a handful of sewing, knitting and quilting podcast’s. I must say the knitting podcasts have really inspired me to hit the needles and get some WIP’s off my needles. So here are my finished items.
Bray Cap by Jared Flood
Column of Leaves Scarf by Brooke Nelson
I loved how this set turned out. This was a fairly easy knit. The directions for both patterns are well written. I was able to wear the hat a couple of times. But the scarf will be for the upcoming Fall/ Winter season.
For this set, I used 2 skiens of Phydeaux Designs worsted merino/cashmere blend in blackberry purchased from my LYS. I must confess, I didn’t knit a gauge swatch. I used a size 7 US needle as suggested in both patterns. I’m happy with outcome.
I normally do not participate in sew-alongs or knit-alongs. But I decided to throw caution to the wind. I added/joined this set to the grocerygirls BBF-KAL on Raverly.
Well, until next time ……………keep sewing and knitting!!

If you want to knit on an airplane, check whether the airline you’re flying allows knitting needles on board and whether TSA currently allows knitting needles through security.
