Stuck Adipose

Update: For those that have asked both here and via email, I don’t have the local copy available right now (machine upgrade, yay!), but I will try.

Update 2: Word is that Mazz is going to be talking to the Beeb soon, so hopefully it will be posted again. 

While the pattern has been taken down at the request of the BBC, I was still able to finish knitting my Adipose. I had saved a copy locally and there is also the google cache page I have linked to below.

This pattern combined many of my worst knitting enemies. Grafting, picking up stitches and embroidering faces. I suck at all three of them.

I’m not overly pleased with the way I knit it, but had I paid attention to the pattern more closely, I think it would have turned out a lot nicer. Still, not bad for a first go.

Pattern: MazzMatazz’s Adipose Pattern
Materials Used:
US7
Wool Ease Sportweight: Natural color

A pink dish scrubbie I knit

I wanted to knit something else for a baby shower gift, so I decided to give this ago.

It was cute and quick. It took my a while to realize what they meant by a running stitch. While I knew what a running stitch was, I was completely implementing it in the wrong way

I think the next one will be in a natural cotton color.

Pattern: The Trouble with Tribbles
Materials Used:
US7
Peaches and Creme: Variegated pink and white

A seed stitch washcloth

A friend of my sister in law is having a baby girl. There is a baby shower coming up and I made this as a part of her gift.

I don’t really like seed stitch, but when I was experimenting, the yarn felt nice in this stitch.

I’ll probably be making more of these.

Pattern: Seed Stitch, 28 sts across
Materials used:
US7 Straight
Peaches & Creme in varigated pink and white
