The Iðunn pattern is worked top-down, a method I truly love for sweaters, it is shaped in the back below the stranded pattern with short rows for a more flattering fit, the yoke pattern is quite short (very important for those of us with ample upper front sides) and as an option it contains short-row elbows. The elbow idea came to me after endless mending of sweater elbows -- in fact it’s very logical that the elbows are the weak point of the sweater -- arms bend, elbows stick out, fabric stretches -- so shaping the elbows with short rows, thus adding an extra bit of fabric just where it’s needed is a good preventive measure. If you are too excited, you can of course skip the elbow shaping and just finish the sleeves without shaping.

Special offer. Through the 15th of Sept. you may purchase this pattern at 3.95 Euros only. Later the price will be 5.95 Euros. Please note that VAT comes on top for EU-countries, as well as Australia. Thank you<3 When I had released my https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/spring-leaf-card..., I had lots of feedback from knitters wanting this cardigan-pattern for bigger sizes. So, here you are:) The “new” cardigan is based upon the “old” one, with some differences. This new version is worked at a gauge of 22 sts (compared to the first version worked at 28 sts) and the button-bands are worked from picked-up sts along the fronts and in rib-pattern instead of garter. All charts and written instructions are the same as used for the tested version, the raglan-shaping of the upper body is the same. It just knits up faster and sizing goes up to 12 years. Sizes Sizes 1/2/3/4/5 – finished chest measurements, when buttoned and worked at gauge: Size 1 (3 years): 58 cm/23” Size 2 (4 - 5 years): 63 cm/24.75” Size 3 (6 – 8 years): 66 cm/26” Size 4 (8 – 10 years): 70 cm /28” Size 5 (10 –12 years): 77 cm/30.5 “ The sample is worked in size 4-5 years. Materials Yarn: I recommend that you use a yarn with great stitch-definition that knits up to gauge. I used the sport weight yarn, ”Semilla Melange” from BC Garn to work the cardigan. This yarn comes in skeins of 50 gr/1.76 oz and 175 m/191 yards. As this yarn knits up to gauge 22 sts I would not call it a typical sport weight yarn. To substitute for another yarn, I recommend that you compare the gauge, rather than the weight. Of this specific yarn you will need 300/350/450/550/700 m = 330/385/495/605/770 yards. Needles Size 3.5 mm/US4 for the lace-patterned hem and cuffs, size 4.5 mm/US7 for the main body and sleeves. Notions Cable needle. Buttons 1.5 cm/0.6” across. Gauge 22 sts and 32 - 34 rows/rounds in stockinette sts = 10 x 10 cm/4 x 4”. Construction The cardigan is knit bottom-up and seamlessly. The pattern The lace-pattern is charted as well as written out. The lace-pattern is the same as in the tested Spring Leaf cardi, and both charts and written instructions are tested/proof-read. There is a schematic. All measurements are given in cm’s as well as in inches. All necessary stitch-counts are given. Knitting skills Intermediate.
The first of my journal quilts this year is inspired by memories of a very difficult period of my life: my husband died eleven years ago and during the first two years after his death I experienced financial hardship, problems with the house which needed repairs I couldn't afford and depression. I also neglected friendships and became rather hermit-like. If the piece above, which I have called Dark, looks grim, it is because it is meant to. I've also deliberately used coarse fabrics - various scrims, including jute scrim, raw edges and silk carrier rods - the black-dyed rods it occurs to me are like huge blocks of something barricading me in from the outside world, which is exactly what happened... The second phase is where I was beginning to cope - living very abstemiously, paying off debts, decluttering the house and applying for a renovation grant. However, another setback occurred when I wa diagnosed with endometrial cancer. This left me feeling raw and vulnerable, hence the title of the second piece, called Raw: The third piece is after I had been operated on and had undergone radiotherapy and the work on the house had begun. I was also financially more stable by this time and the title, Mending, describes the time when I was beginning to find things enjoyable again, and becoming less isolated, repairing old friendships and developing new ones. Hence the brighter colours. I've also used materials and techniques which suggest healing - the dyed mesh is fabric used for wound dressings; I've used darning and knots. The fourth journal quilt is called Light, and describes more or less where I am now, having shed some of the previous burdens: treatment for cancer was successful. The house is still a work in progress, but only in terms of bits needing redecorating - all the serious stuff has been done. And although I apparently earn well below the national average I can live comfortably within my income. I am enjoying life and feel comfortable in my own skin for the first time in a long while. The final project for this month has been a small quilt I made for a display at the Quilt Museum in York of work from our region of the Quilters Guild. The challenge was to make a long narrow quilt in tints and shades of one colour only. And somehow I found myself visualising ferns: here's the quilt - it will be on display in the Aldwark Gallery for the months of July and August:
Infinity Times 7 Scarf - Knitting in a Round: I have been wanting to make an infinity scarf for a while now and just during the holidays, I got a circular needle set so I had to try it out. I am quite happy with the outcome.
