Now Playing: Elizabeth Zimmermann Bog Jacket
Now Playing: Elizabeth Zimmermann Bog Jacket
I am knitting EZ's Bog Jacket, that is in her book Knitting Around chapter 5. I have put in 3 sets of short rows for shapping in the back of the jacket, and did some waist shaping of the jacket. I am almost to the underarm section of the jacket. At that point I will put in the Phoney side seams.

tea towel for my Mama
I knit these cute little tea towels for my Mother. It only took a couple of days to knit both of them. I find them very handy to have hanging in the kitchen. I used Peaches and Cream cotton for these little towels. The pattern for these tea towels can be found at http://www.woolneedlework.com/Free%20PatternFun/towels_1571.htm

The Knitted Bog Jacket
Mood:

Now Playing: Elizabeth Zimmermann
Mood:
energeticNow Playing: Elizabeth Zimmermann
I am going to try to knit Elizabeth Zimmermann's Bog Jacket from her book Knitting Around. I have figured out what I want my circumference to be. I have knitted a swatch, so that I can get the gauge for my knitting. I am using Wool-Easy yarn, the color Spring Green. I can not wear wool. It is way to itchy. That is why I chose the Wool-Ease. I am using size 8 circular needles.

My niece Tiffany is going to have a baby this summer. I have already knit her a baby sweater. Yesterday when I was looking at some baby patterns, I found this cute bib on the Bernat website. I decided that it would be perfect for Tiffani's baby. I knit it using Bernat cottontots, in the color sweet dreams.
