Indigo Ripples Skirt














Pattern: Indigo Ripples Skirt from IK Spring 2007 designed by Kat Coyle
Yarn: Rowan Denim, 8,5 skeins
Needles: Susan Bates circular needle #US 5. After trying my Denise Needles, I found it easier to work Rowan Denim on metal once (I used the cheapest needles I had at home and they worked fine)
Modifications: I added length to the stockinette panel and shortened the lace part. Instead of 60 rows I knitted only 50.

Print O`the Wave Stole










Pattern: Eunny`s Print o`the wave stole
Yarn: Jade Sapphire Lacy Lamb, one skein with very little left over
Needles: Knitpicks Circular, US #2
Gauge: 20" x 55" finished dimensions
Modifications: I made the whole stole in one piece instead of grafting two identical halves together. I sacrificed the symmetry but I like it better without the grafting row and therefore no interruption to the pattern.
