Life Changes Again

2011-06-25T20:20:00.000-06:00

I decided to check in once again as life stresses are winding down. Imagine my surprise to realize it has been over a year!

Due to health concerns, I did not get further on my patterns, but the ideas are flowing very fast! I am tying to balance everything but summer time is also a very busy time.

Current Projects:

I am working on some new designs for my jewelry, sculptures, knitting patterns and even an Altar Kit. I am very excited about these and hope to have them finished in a few months...again, time constraints. I really need to learn to manage my time and stress better. =D

One I finish my projects, I will be selling some on Etsy.com

Fibromyalgia and Rheumatoid Arthritis

2010-02-01T11:30:00.000-07:00

Five years ago I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I did not think anything about it. Yes, I had heard the studies about joint deterioration and how this is a disease of crippling capabilities. I really did not believe it.

Two years ago I started into what could be called "flares". I had little nodes on my feet that left both of my feet looking like they had been smashed. Bruising was horrible, I could not walk or even wear my shoes. I was experiencing terrible fatigue, pain in my joints, swelling and fever-type feelings. I was at a loss of what to do. I continued trying to live my life as best I could.

Finally, I was scheduled to see another Rheumatologist last month. After many tests, medical records referrals and discussions I have my diagnosis and a start to treatment...NOT Rheumatoid Arthritis as the old Rheumatologist told me, but instead Fibromyalgia.

I was very happy that I did not have RA, but very upset at the previous Specialist's mis-diagnosis. For the last five years I have been trying to maintain and have been trying to work out my own treatment.

So, long story short...I have developed a chart for monitoring Fibromyalgia (but can be used to monitor RA as well). Simply change the Daily / Weekly Title to your name, Place in the date and Give to your Doctor to assist in your medical treatment.

Printing Problems on Page 2

2010-01-24T10:52:00.000-07:00

A person tried to print my Mother's Rose Dishcloth pattern a few days ago. It seems that there is a problem with page 2 and the printer. I am guessing that this is in the PDF file format of the patterns. I have run into this a couple of times with a few of the patterns as well. I am trying to rework them so that they print off easier. I am also combining all these patterns into a Kindle (and maybe a Mobli} format; so that the patterns may be read on the reading devices. I am also considering placing the instructions in accessible MP3 file formats for those who have devices and would rather have the instructions read to them. Just some of my ideas and what I am currently working on.

I love my Kindle! It has been so much easier to take what I need and go. The new larger screen version is also very good for people with Low Eyesight. The Kindle talks to you (on books that are speech enabled) so that you can listen to the words as well. If you are mostly or totally blind you would need someone to assist you in the initial set up; after that a simple key combination would turn the sound off and on. It also plays MP3 files so you can listen to music, instructions or other things.

Simple Basket Weave Afghan, Scarf or Dishcloth

2010-01-20T22:33:00.000-07:00

Simple Basket Weave Afghan, Scarf or Dishcloth

(with or without boarder)

This pattern is done in multiples of 12 stitches for the afghan, multiples of 4 stitches for the dishcloth or scarf.

You will need:

Afghan: US sized 10 needles, Stitch Markers, Four to Six skeins of Worsted Weight yarn. (Two or Three in a light color and Two or three in a dark color - do not use variegated). Makes a Twin size but you can altar that once you get the hang of it, just add more multiples = 24 stitches per addition (12 k and 12 p or vice versa).

Dishcloth, Scarf: US sized 5 or 8 needles (depending on what you are comfortable with and how wide you want the finished items to be); a skein of cotton yarn (Sugar & Cream, or Lily type) for the Dishcloth; a skein of whatever color Worsted Weight you desire for the scarf.

I will list the instructions for the Scarf and Dishcloth first, then the Afghan:

There is no border on these, you can add your favorite boarder by adding in the additional stitches (i.e. Moss Stitch: Add 8 stitches more to each row.

Row 1: You would k 1, p 1, across.

Row 2: Turn, p 1, k 1 across. Turn.

Row 3: k 1, p 1, k 1, p 1, then follow row 3 instructions DO NOT TURN yet, k 1, p 1, k 1, p 1. Turn.

Row 4: p 1, k 1, p 1, k 1, then follow row 4 instructions DO NOT TURN yet, p 1, k 1, p 1, k 1. Turn.

Continue in this manner until it is the size you want. Then Repeat Rows 1 and bind/cast off p1, k1 across. )

K=Knit

P=Purl

MM= Move the marker

Dishcloth OR Scarf

Foundation: Cast on 12 stitches in whatever manner you are comfortable with.

Row 1: Knit across. (12 stitches total) Turn

Row 2: Purl across. (12 stitches total) Turn

Row 3: knit 4, place a marker, purl 4, place a marker, knit 4. (12 stitches total) Turn

Row 4: purl 4, move marker onto needle (mm), knit 4, (mm), purl 4. (12 stitches total) Turn

Row 5: k 4, mm, p 4, mm, k 4, (12 stitches total). Turn

Row 6: p 4, mm, k 4, mm, p 4, (12 stitches total) Turn

Row 7 - End: continue pattern until the piece is the size you desire for either a dishcloth or scarf.

Bind off knitwise.

Afghan: Hold the two colors of yarn together, pulling one string from each skein color.

Foundation: cast on 60 stitches (more in groups of 24 stitches if you want a bigger afghan).

Row 1: Knit across. (60 stitches total -or the number you added for your size requirement) Turn

Row 2: Purl across. (60 stitches total+) Turn

Row 3: knit 12 place marker, purl 12, place a marker, knit 12, place marker, purl 12, place marker, knit 12. (60 stitches total+) Turn

Row 4: purl 12, move marker onto needle (mm), knit 12, (mm), purl 12, (mm), knit 12, (mm), purl 12, (mm). (60 stitches total+) Turn

Row 5: knit 12 (mm), purl 12, (mm), knit 12, (mm), purl 12, (mm), knit 12. (60 stitches total+) Turn

Row 6: purl 12, (mm), knit 12, (mm), purl 12, (mm), knit 12, (mm), purl 12, (mm). (60 stitches total+) Turn

Husband's New Friend

2010-01-09T15:19:00.003-07:00

My husband decided to gift me with a new challenge for the New Year...like I need any more? = )

We welcomed a new puppy into our home. Her name is Foxy and she is a nine month old Miniature German Shepard. She is fully grown at only 14 lbs. She stands as high as my Boston Terrier, Sassy.

So, we are trying to train and re-train this puppy. She is learning well but I still miss my Loki. The challenge of training has fallen to me because I am the one at home. At least we don't have a house training problem with her.

Shots, chip and fixing comes next. Foxy is another shelter dog, she was so scared and shy when we got her that she just sat and shook for about six hours. She took to my husband right off and did not want to leave his lap. We still have to take care how we train and discipline her. It makes me wonder just what the poor thing has been through. She is a lover though and a good addition to the family, even though I didn't think I was ready yet for another.

No animal can ever take the place of my Loki but as we live day to day we learn that the heart can not stay solid. It is nice to know that my heart has softened enough to like the company of my husband's new friend. She is a good addition to our home. Maybe, in about 15 years, I will be ready for another guide dog and companion, until then Sassy is my companion and we will miss Loki together.

New Year, New Goals

2010-01-07T10:01:00.002-07:00

Well, I have been doing a lot of studying recently and also I have come to the realization that I need to organize my life better. There are a lot of things that I want to do with my time and so I need to budget my time better. I would still like to design but I have no time to knit or crochet. I sculpt, make candles, sew, paint, make soap, take care of my family, clean house, garden and still study too...lol Where is all the time to come from?

Budgeting my time is the first step. Finding a good amount of time to dedicate to each project is the next. Do I allot a certain amount of time each day for each category or do set aside one or two days a week for a certain to-do item? Oh decisions, decisions!

The Rheumatoid Arthritis is getting worse again this season as well. So trying to schedule around RA Flair-ups has been difficult.

Well, as I taught my children when they were growing up..."How do you eat an elephant? You eat him one bite at a time!" So I will start with simple timing and budgeting my time; and then I go on from there.

1. Pattern Design

2. Pattern Woring

3. Beading

4. Candles

5. Soap Making

6. Painting

7. Leather Work

8. Wood Burning

9. Sewing

10. Sculpting

11. Gardening

12. Cooking (my Recipe Book)

13. Study/Lessons

Wow! So much to do! Okay, balance is the key. Now I need to work it into a daily time table that includes house cleaning and taking care of my family...well, off to work.

Memorial to My Companion

2009-11-06T19:35:00.004-07:00

In the dark of a quiet evening, his breathing became labored and he became listless. After trying to work with him we determined that something was wrong beyond our ability to find a solution. My husband drove us to the local vet, only 30 miles away, who gave him a thorough examination. The diagnosis was an aggressive form of blood cancer. He fell ill at 5 pm and was gone at 5:40 am the next morning, November 5, 2009.

Loki was an animal shelter dog born on May 3, 2002. He topped out at 84 pounds, all black except for a white speckled stripe around his neck. He was a Black Lab/Blue Healer mix that I adopted at six weeks old. Through various groups I learned to train him myself and he was my constant companion and guide dog. He went everywhere with me and was pivotal in my being able to join the workforce. When I developed a mild case of agoraphobia he was the one constant source of companionship that allowed me to leave my home. I was able to learn and accomplish a lot, just because of him and what he brought to our partnership. I cannot begin to express what being without him is doing to me or how my life will be from here on. I miss him.

Mobile Patterns and Amazon Kindle

2009-06-07T09:16:00.007-06:00

Sorry it has been so long folks. As things pile up sometimes I shut down. This has been the case. I am working "a bit" now and trying to find new ways to offer my patterns.

Recently I purchased a great new device called an Amazon Kindle (2nd Generation). It is roughly 8" x 5" in size and about as thin a standard NO. 2 pencil. This Kindle 2 has been wonderful! I can take my books anywhere in a single slim unit, listen to audio books, MP3 files and...with the help of MobiPocket Creator 4.2 Professional (a free program) I can now change my PDF's and Word docs to Kindle format! Reading this is like reading a "normal" printed book. The text is crisp, the pages "flutter" when you turn them...but it has even more benefits.

What does this mean? I can even create my own eBooks for a variety of devices as well as books for the Kindle!

I have been working on combining all my patterns (with corrections kindly posted to me by caring handcrafters) into a single eBook. This single book will be available for a very small fee when completed; and now I can also create and post it for the Kindle reader as well. I am currently working on this so it will not be available yet...but I would like to hear from you with ideas about the formats of eBooks that you would most like. Please comment or email me at AutumnRa@gmail.com.

It will be so nice to have all my patterns in one spot. I will be able to carry ALL my patterns with me when I travel and on the Kindle you can annotate the text with notes too. (Yes, I do like my Kindle!)

Another feature of the Kindle I am enjoying? I can view my Blog and website in Advanced Web settings right on the Kindle as well as reading my Gmail email. The Whispernet makes it so nice! I don't have to "connect" to the internet through the computer when I am traveling or away from home. I can still download books directly from Amazon or check my blogs and email.

Another feature is that I can jot down notes to myself, pattern ideas and more in a personal note document. I can even convert and read my other personal documents on my Kindle and upload them from my computer.

As I mentioned before, I am Legally Blind. This little device has a text size change ability and will even "text-to-speech" read a lot of your text to you (where allowed by authors/publishing houses). The sound is similar to the computer generated text recognition programs for the Blind (like JAWS). I have not tried the audible.com audio books on it yet but the documentation says it does play audio books as well. When I tested the MP3 files I was in for a BIG surprise...the sound was great!

At the end of June 2009, Amazon is releasing the new Kindle DX. It is available for pre-order at Amazon.com now.

This is about the size of a Notebook (10.5" x 7.4") with native PDF files capability (no need to convert most PDF files). The DX also has a rotation feature that allows you to look at images in a landscape format.

It is expensive but I will be looking at saving up for this as well if the Kindle continues to assist and entertain me as well as it is now! lol

Sorrow and Loss

2009-04-30T14:12:00.005-06:00

On Sunday, April 25, 2009, my third grandchild, Eric Anthon Topham, was delivered. He managed to live for nearly an hour before he passed away. This is now two of my three daughters who have had pregnancy problems with premature delivery.

This has been so hard, three babies deaths in four years:

Asher Mateo Jarvis - 22 January 2005
Joseph Romeo Valdez-Jarvis - May 30, 2008
Eric Athon Topham - April 26, 2009

I did manage to make several new baby patterns during the last four months and will release them on the website and here soon...but not just yet. For the next little bit I will be off site. Please continue to enjoy the free patterns here and on Wicket Stitch Handcrafts website: http://wicketstitch.net.

Baby Handcrafts

2009-04-08T12:00:00.001-06:00

I am currently working on a wonderful baby blanket from Mary Maxim. It is nearly done and I will post pictures when it is finished.

I am also playing with some cute ideas for my own knit and crocheted baby booties. I will update more on this as well soon.

Stress?

2009-03-31T13:14:00.002-06:00

What is stress? Is it the worry over the current economic crisis? Is it worry about jobs? Is it worry about weather or not your current craft project will get done on time? IS it having to talk with relatives? lol What is stress?

For me it was financial concerns and just trying to kick off my design and crafting business...until recently. I learned that stress is spelled...eBay. Things were going well and I was establishing myself on eBay when suddenly my account was suspended. Not for non payment, not for anything legitimate. Just because there May and been a connection (not verified) with another account that had been canceled! So, I contacted them and they told me that the problem was not with my account but with another account. However, they can not allow me access to my account (even to close it) until this other alleged account is cleared up...which has nothing to do with me! I explained that I had open transactions going on and I need to see them to be able to pay and take care of them properly and they told me no.

So, eBay has become my number 1 stress. For no strikes, no problems or anything(I have 100% feedback) I have been suspended and they will not even talk to me. eBay sucks big time! I have decided that even if they do manage to figure out what happened and straighten it all out I will NOT be back. The idea is good but their system is horrible.

Okay, now on to my crafting stuff...

My Beaded Goddess Doll is coming along well. My crocheted Baby Blanket I am trying to design for my new-to-be grandchild is also coming along. The website is up for all my older free patterns in PDF, HTML and Word 2007 formats and I am still working on my dishcloth patterns as well.

Don't forget to send me your requests: RaAnn@wicketstitch.net or AutumnRa@gmail.com

Don't forget to visit Wicket Stitch Handcrafts and the other free sites also listed here or on the links page at my website.

New Website!

2009-03-17T16:15:00.004-06:00

I was able to finish building my new website http://wicketstitch.net. Talk about a lot of fun! I worked tech support and design for a company that built websites several years ago so this was like a walk down memory lane. The website up and running. =)

On my website will find my patterns listed in one place. You can also download PDF, Word 2007 or HTML versions of my patterns. Eventually I will also have patterns and items for sale (but not yet).

My blog will remain up and running but my new patterns will be posted on the WicketStitch.net site. I will write on my Blog when a new pattern is posted.

Thanks for following my blog, and remember I can always be reached at AutumnRa@gmail.com OR RaAnn@wicketstitch.met.

Mountain Majestic©

2009-03-10T16:50:00.008-06:00

Hi All! sorry this is late. =)

So, first some information...

The basic Men's Sweater pattern is below. As for the Mountain Majestic part, you can cross stitch the finished sweater using DMC embroidery thread and the chart pattern beow or you can bead the sweater as you are knitting it.

The following chart is #5 beads OR knit with 8 needles. You could also crochet the chart with beads or just switchng colors. If using this chart you will need to be advanced in your craft work because I have not listed instructions on this. (Except on the Front portion of the following pattern for a Knitted Sweater- and then only basic instructions are included). The chart is size 12 x 12 inches approximately, depending on the size of needles used and/or beads. Yarn/Beads color requirements are NOT listed in written pattern. (My computer is not good at color definition so I will leave that up to you). =)

Lesson in Charts

2009-02-28T11:46:00.008-07:00

Welcome to week 10 of 2009! I am trying to post at least once a week this year. =) As I want to knit, take care of my household, get ready for a new Grandchild this year and design...well, time does seem to get away from me.

First a reminder...Just like when you are cooking, it is very important to read through the pattern completely BEFORE you start a project. This will hopefully save you time and confusion later. Need help with Beading? Check out this site: Bead Wrangler for some great free tutorials including Crochet with Beads.

I wanted to share some information about Charts today. Charts can be used for many different things. You can weave from a chart; bead in loom, peyote, brick, off-loon, etc; knit in textures like my dishcloths, knit or crochet in colors and knit or crochet in beaded stitches...and this is just a few of the things you can do with a chart. I have even used my charts to create a frosting design for a birthday cake.

There is one thing to remember about Charts you want to use for Knitting and Bead Work. A chart is usually square and a chart for knitting and beads will be elongated slightly taller than wide. For this reason several of my charts look "squat" or pinched down until they are actually worked. The following chart is for Elf Mystery. This is a pattern I have been working on but is much better in color so far. The pattern is 40 stitches square, but if you add a row on the "back" side of the chart that is "beadless" (if you are using beads) such as a straight knit stitch every even row when knitting the project; then, the height will be about 80 stitches and elongated.

This is a Victorian Silhouette. It is easy to see how you can knit the white squares and purl the black (or vice versa) to create a dishcloth. Again this is 40 stitches. When I make my double sided patterns I follow the chart in reverse every other row. I also add a border to the chart when I am writing the pattern up (not on the chart itself).

I have been asked "how do you use a chart for Beaded or color Crochet"? So today I am going to explain this process. (Knitting with beads can be done the same way using stockinette stitch).

1. First of all you will want to take the chart and lay out the colored beads you are going to use on it. Make sure that the beads you are going to use will look good together. Likewise if you are just using color, place the skeins of yarn together and make sure you have the supplies you need.

2. Take your thread and string your beads, starting with the "last" bead you are going to be using.

3. Crochet a chain in the number of chains as you have squares in the width of the chart PLUS 2 (two) chains. Use the background color for this.

4. Now you are going to work in single crochet across the chart. Use one single crochet with bead, in the color shown, for each square; plus one single crochet on each side without beads. This will give you a type of border to work up your fringe or edging. If you are not using beads then just use a single crochet and change colors of yarn as the chart calls for it.

Simple enough? =)

I decided to add the chart here of the Fireman's Hat I have been working on. Those of you whom have been asking for this pattern...maybe if you can use the chart it may get done faster. (sorry)

First one is a large version of the Fireman's Hat & Ax. There are more than the standard 40 stitches that I normally do so you may want to knit this with smaller needles and GAUGE your work to make sure it is the size you want it to be. The white area are either knit or purl stitches, while the black areas are the reverse. The two large charts are for approx 15 x 15 wall hangings. The beads for the two large ones are #11. The last one is an 8 x 8 inch pattern using larger beads/needles. There are only about 40 stitches on it.

When I design a new pattern I always start with a chart. These charts are very important to me and I usually do not release them, even though the patterns have been. Still, I decided to show these to you. I ask that you please remember the Copyright laws on my charts and patterns.

As always, you may contact me if you would like. I love to hear from you and your input is invaluable. Thanks again everyone! - RaAnn (AutumnRa@gmail.com)

AFTER NOTE: I just discovered that all my saved charts for my patterns are missing! I know they must be on my backup somewhere but I have been unable to find them yet. If you are someone who has requested copies of my patterns in PDF format...please bear with me while I try to locate my missing files; or, you can "print" my patterns on the blog using a program such as CutePDF. This is a free program that will print to PDF for you. I will put together a PDF "book" of my charts as well as the patterns to date once I find them all.

Beaded Patterns and News

2009-02-19T13:56:00.014-07:00

My first two beaded designs. The first is something fun just for me...a beaded 6 x 6 design that I had to do just for fun. This is made using cylinder size 11 beads in a lot of colors.

The second design is an wonderful amulet bag. This bag design is made using size 11 cylinder beads on a loom as well. Finished size is 3 x 3 inches.

If you would like these patterns, please click on the images and copy/print out the image. Detailed info such as colors is only available in Word or PDF format.

I have a banner version of the Sunset Amulet Bag also using Pony sized beads in peyote pattern but have not decided yet how to release it.

If you would like a copy of my free patterns please email me at AutumnRa@gmail.com and request either a PDF or Word version. Right now only some of the free patterns are available as I had a computer crash. Eventually I will also have for sale an e-booklet of patterns that I have created.

Now, on to knitting patterns...be back soon.

'Bead'ginnings

2009-02-15T12:25:00.004-07:00

Well, some time had passed again. The Holiday season went well for my family but I have been battling Rheumatoid Arthritis flare-ups since November. RA is not a fun thing to deal with when you have designs and knitting to do. I hope to do better though.

I am going to start designing again, now that my hands are working =) and also starting some beading work. The pattern ideas flowing through my head are great! It is hoped that I will also be able to start making items for sale on etsy.com and my sister's site as well.

I will keep you updated as I go. BTW, as to questions about the Guide Dog pattern and the Marine pattern...No, I do not have photos yet. I will post one as soon as I receive them or knit them up again.

Thanks everyone. I plan to make this year a great one.

UPDATE

2008-11-29T23:32:00.004-07:00

Thanks to Christina we have a correction on Guide Dog 1 Pattern. { , I found a mistake on row 13, the second last stitch calls for p5 should be p4 before the border and the same for row 37, the last p5 should be p6 then border.}

No Pics yet but lots of personal comments! Thanks again!

Status Normal? LoL

2008-11-08T17:17:00.005-07:00

Okay, yes I am laughing. I had a MAJOR computer crash. Then the new hard drive that I had to replace did not arrive. When it did I found out the tools I needed I did not have. Finally I got it all together and started to reload my old programs back on my machine. Then I hit a wrong button…I froze my machine and scrambled the language. The result? I had to re-format and start all over again!!!

Now, two (or is it three) weeks later I am finally back in business. I have upgraded to MS office 2007. I am using my graphic programs to chart my patterns again and then create the knit and crochet patterns from there. Sorry but I do have to re-create the Guide Dog patterns again due to the crash. I should have them done by the end of the week though.

Finally, I am working on a plan to convert my patterns to a single disk. For those who do not want to print their own pattern out I will print them out and mail them to you for a fee. Please let me know if you are interested in this service.

See you all at the end of this week!

Coming Back Soon...New Free Patterns!

2008-10-31T16:22:00.006-06:00

Well folks it has been a really rough five months! My medications are Finally starting to have a positive effect and my energy is beginning to come back a little. I am trying to balance knitting/crocheting time and designing/computer time so that I can get more free patterns on the site.

To everyone who has been dedicated enough to stay with me and watch for updates, Thank You! Your continued support has meant so much to me!!!

Please send your requests and ideas for patterns to: AutumnRa@gmail.com and I will try to get some patterns created at the rate of one or two a week…but please take into consideration that I am the only one working on these so I have to create and then knit these, test them and then publish them. =)

I hope to start updating my Blog once a week at a minimum too so I will see you soon!

When it Rains...it Pours!

2008-06-08T17:29:00.002-06:00

When I was 15 years old I ended up having a wonderful little girl. After presure from my mother, I allowed my mother adopted her. My daughter/sister has just had her second stillborn child...my second grandchild.

So, we have just gone through another funeral in 28 days.

Memories for:

Joseph Romeo Valdez Jarvis

He was laid to rest next to his stillborn brother:

Asher Meteo Jarvis

Slowly Coming Back

2008-05-28T23:23:00.001-06:00

Well, it has been a long time since I last posted. Many things have happened to me and my family. I do not recommend having two weddings within four months. =)

Although I have not been able to knit/crochet yet, I hope to start designing again by July. Many things are still happening but I feel much stronger.

My Bi-Polar Disorder is finally becoming under control and I have been able to once again feel as if I can function. The only problem I have now is that I am recovering from the sudden loss of my Mother.

My mother was Carla Ann. She was a very complicated but loving woman. She had a fire for life and lived through many obstacles winning her way to much wisdom while still caring deeply for those around her. Carla left two children and six grandchildren. My oldest daughter, Jenny, is expecting in November and this will be Mom’s first surviving great grandchild. As I have been dealing with the aftermath of my mother’s death I have had contact with many people who have known and cared about my mother through her life. It wasn’t until recently that I learned that she has touched many more lives than even she was aware of.

Mom, we miss you and love you dearly.

All KAL's/CAL's Canceled

2008-01-05T14:19:00.000-07:00

I am going to continue to design and post on my Blog as soon as I am able; however, due to unforeseen circumstances the Yahoo Groups I had created were deleted. Scarves & Shawls Etc and Wicketstitch are now gone. For this I am most sorry. Please accept my apologies to anyone whom may have been injured by the abrupt disappearance of the groups.

The Icelandic Shawl KAL is being done by Cathy on her new group. She is a wonderful person to work with and very knowledgeable. If you are searching to work on this project, please go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ILoveKandCAlongs/

At this time I do not have plans to re-create any groups but I will post if that changes in the future. Before I take an action to create a new group I must make sure that my health and time, as well as any other concerns, are completely dealt with so that there is never a lack of my full participation in the group.

For those who have continued to support me I give my most heartfelt thanks. Please check back from time to time as I will post updates on my designs and plans.

As always, I will be available by email for design suggestions at AutumnRa@gmail.com and for other conversations as needed.

SASE Shawl Projects

2007-11-06T14:29:00.001-07:00

On January 1, 2008, my Shawls & Scarves, Etc group will begin three new shawl projects for the quarterly “Wrapped in Stitches” KAL/CAL. This is a Shawl group that knits and crochets two Scarves a month and does a KAL/CAL of three shawls every quarter (January, April, July, October.) I am still deciding on two of the shawls but the Knitting Daily's Icelandic Shawl has been chosen as one of the three. Sarah’s Yarns has a new Icelandic Yarn Kit all set up for this shawl. Please check out her site for more information or you may contact me directly at AutumnRa@gmail.com .

Sarah’s Yarns are very good. She has excellent prices and the shipping is reasonable and very quick. I have used her Egyptian Cotton Yarn for my dishcloths and her special cashmere for a few of my scarves. These fibers are very good. I have worked shawls in her the Jaggerspun that she offers and love the end results. Sarah’s Yarns, Jaggerspun Mainline Yarn is even what I am using for my new Shrug pattern I am creating. I highly recommend her services if you are looking for high quality and fast shipping.

On the home front I have been working on a few more dishcloths, scarves and a shawl as well. First I have to catch up on my housework…and then back to the fun! =)

I have updated the look to my Blog and incorporated a new listing of all my patterns. These links will allow you to navigate directly to the patterns without searching through the archives. I hope that this makes it easier.

You will find that I have updated the patterns as well. Any fixes that were sent to me have been noted. I also added a few patterns that were only available on my free yahoo group site. There are a few patterns here that do not have photos. If you knit up a pattern please feel free to email me a picture of your finished work, together with your name. I would love to get the photos onto patterns that do not have one yet and I love to hear about your work with my patterns. You may reach me at AutumnRa@gmail.com .

As you look at this month's posts, you will find five new patterns. The Grim Reaper Kitchen Towel, The Grim Reaper Dishcloth, The Grim Reaper Scarf, the Witch in Flight Dishcloth, and the Remember Red Poppy Dishcloth.

I will have more dishcloth patterns coming toward the end of this week. Tomorrow is All Hallows Eve/Hallween/Samhain so it will be a busy night. I hope that everyone enjoys the fun!
