New pattern: A glove by any other name

February 17, 2008 in accessories, design, gloves, knitting, patterns, techniques by Sarah

A glove by any other name - 1$5.00

Of course you could just knit gloves on double pointed needles. Life would be more simple if everyone did things the same way, but not everyone likes dpn, and sometimes you want to try something different, just because you can.

These gloves are knit on straight needles in double knitting, so there are no seams either. They require the same amount of making up that gloves on dpn: just weave in ends.

  • Fried rice pick me up
    I used to live in China, and there are some things that I still miss, some things I don’t.  One thing that I became very tired of in China, but now miss is fried rice. I went to China without learning any Chinese at all, and I had to rely on others for many things,  including [...] […]
  • Granola
    Granola is one of the things I really like to make.  I made some recently and this particular version is so lovely that I thought I would share: Recipe: 4 1/2 cups rolled oats 1/4 cup oat bran 1/2 cup sunflower seeds 1/4 cup hulled sesame seeds 1/2 cup sliced almonds 1/2 cup pecan halves 1/3 cup dried cranberries 1/4 cup dried currants 1/4 cup [...] […]

I think I may make some next year and give it away for Christmas [...] […]
  • Pistachio cookies (recipe coming)
