Mess of Wips

Time to be honest and report my current WIPs.

Wip #1
I saw a Sideways Seaman scarf on this blog but the pattern is no longer available.
So of course I had to try and make up my own version because it is garter stitch with short rows, similar to my Sideways Mittens.

Last night I was happily nearing the end when I saw the mistake.
Can you see it?
Clue: The purple stripe is the midpoint and I did not repeat the stripes in the right sequence.
So it's rippit, rippit, back to the mistake.





Wip #2 is this cute cardi - Super-Natural Stripes from fpea's Free Pattern Fridays






Wip #3

Cold Shoulder Capelet from the Happy Hooker





Wip #4

Another hat!




Now to answer some questions!

Crafty Callie
asked if I was going to post the pattern for the ripple hat.
Maybe I'll try and knit up another one and take notes. I didn't to that last time so I have no pattern - yet :)



Well back to reading Harry Potter and playing around in Ravelry.
My Ravelry name is KnittingNonni.
I finally got my invite and now to enter projects and such.
Love all the features and the ability to check out what other's are knitting.
Many, many ideas!

I love all of your WIPs! I'm sorry you have to rip, but I didn't notice it either, if it makes you feel better :) I love how the brown hat is coming, when I first looked at it, it looked like some hard core intarsia...then I saw the self-striping! It looks so cool! Thanks for posting about the pattern! I'm so jealous of your ravelry account, I think you are going to have a lot of fun with it, from what I hear :) I think that you'll inspire so many others out there too :) Hope you have a great day :)

Everyone that has a Ravelry account raves about the site, but I have yet to apply. Maybe I should. Love the little sweater.
