It seemed like an inordinately long week this week for some reason and I am glad it is Friday!
I do have a Finished Object to share with you today (and this morning, I could have used them outside this morning as the temperature was a very chilly 50!) I finished the Ferryboat Mitts from the absolutely lovely Shepherd’s Lamb Rambouillet Yarn. What an absolute treat to knit with this yarn. Shepherd’s Lamb sent me undyed yarn, but they have some really beautiful dyed skeins and they even have a few plant dyed skeins as well! While I was limited as to what to make (besides a swatch) with just a skein or two, this yarn would make a lovely sweater. It is so squishy and soft. And, while this is a soft yarn, I think it will wear very well. This yarn is next to skin soft, so you could also make a squishy warm cowl with a couple of skeins. If you have never knit with Rambouillet, I highly recommend this yarn.
Now, how about some links?
- I found this absolutely fascinating.
- Strickplaner Because doesn’t everyone schedule their knitting time?
- Sisterhood – insist – persist – resist!
- Camira
- Baldric
- This trio of patterns are absolutely stunning.
That is all I have for this week! Have an awesome weekend and I will see you back here on Monday!
Love the fog catchers! Awesome. Have a great weekend Kat.
Your mitts look beautifully cozy and the fog catchers are indeed fascinating and ingenious! Hope you have a great weekend!
Amazing! Happy Weekend Kat!
I’d really like to squish those mitts — just love Rambo! Thanks for another great collection of links. Always good to start off the weekend with some knitting eye candy!
Those fog catchers are amazing! Have a great weekend!
I’m complaining about 60 this morning. I’d have a hard time not turning on the heat if it were 50! AND I’d be wearing your warm, lovely mitts! Enjoy your weekend!
Oh you’re a temptress! Have a wonderful weekend Kat and those mitts are fabulous!
Your mitts look very cozy!
Kat that quite a compliment for the yarn. Sounds divine. I love the natural color. I love fingerless.
As for the book covers, wowza. I ‘d love some of those!
Ooo! Those mitts look just perfect! (And I could really use them right now. . . ) I’m really liking that Sisterhood hat — and think it might be a perfect gift for both my daughter and my daughter-in-law. Thanks for the links — and have a great weekend! XO

We had high 40’s overnight! Yikes!!! Those mitts look very cozy.
