I Just Want to Knit

Linda finished this adorable baby set. She wants to make a sweater next.
Elizabeth used the "top down" model in the Custom Knits book by Wendy Bernard to design her top down coat.
Michelle was swatching for a swing jacket in Berroco Origami.
Mary finished her Flounce scarf. She knit it up on #8 needles, 10 sts. (Mary knits loosely, so this would've been a 10 for someone who knits with a even gauge.) It was much heavier and dense that you would expect by looking at it.

We're playing around with different pattern ideas and maybe changing the needle size.
Yay! Mary finished her Seduce tank top. To make it a little longer she used a crocheted border pattern from Edie Eckman's new book "Around the Corner Crocheted Borders". The book is full of really great border ideas.
This is Mary's sweater for one of her sons. He's a big guy, so it's taking a while. She's now in the home stretch, knitting the hood and sewing it up.
