Encore! Sublime Extrafine Merino yarn in YELLOW!!!!

Hi Knitters,

I'm working on Op. 10 scarf right now.  The first half is made up by Noro Yarn and Patons Yarn. Just finished the first half of it. Wanna preview?

Op. 10, as I promised, knitted with the yarn ball "arranged" from a skein of Noro's Iroha.  Made of 50% of wool, 40% of silk and 10% of Nylon, Iroha in purple gave me a sense of warmth.  But I didn't sweat due to knitting it continuously for 2 hours.   Happy with that during so-called summer time in bay area.    Too bad I only got one skein of it.  I do like the yarn just the way I like other Noro yarn.  

The milky part you can see is made of Patons Moorland Shetland D.K.  Absolutely  yarn for cold weather. 

In the second half of Op. 10 scarf, I will knit with my beloved Sublime yarn.

Just a friendly reminder, I used sublime yarn in pink to knit Op. 8 scarflet.  

This time I will work with yellow color.  Shall I call it mustard? ??

Sublime yarn is just as gorgeous as usual.  So silky and soft to touch; so easy to knit with; so adorable to keep your eyes on....  Magnificent.  It's not only good for kids, adults will love it too....I just adore the colorways of this yarn.  Compared to Noro's Iroha, Sublime is much lighter in weight.  

Op. 10 is coming soon.  Stay in tune and

HAPPY KNITTING

Op. 8 Scarflet

Hi Knitter,

I'm too proud to present Op. 8 scarflet and it's pattern.  YEAH.

The pattern of this scarlet is now available on Ravelry and Etsy.  Another YEAH!
The structure of this scarflet is, as other scarlet, needs extra attentions to build.  Leaves on both side, neck part which can be extended and the loop part.

To be honest, the loop is not as difficult as some knitters image: just separate the stitches into two parts.

Material: SublimeLustrous Extra Fine Merino DK Yarn Color Way294 Folie 120 yards (1 & 1/4 balls)

Tools: A pair of US #6  (4.0mm) needles

          A set of  US #6 (4.0 mm) double-pointed needle

Size: Length 82cm

             Wide Leaf 17cm

                       Ribbing  18cm

Gauges: 12 stitches X 16 rows = 10 cm X 10 cm

And since it requires something useful and advance in technical means, I will make some YouTube 
tutorials which hopefully will give a little hand to some friend knitters.

Scarflet patterns, unlike scarf patterns, are not common available.  And I'm quite amused and a little proud that I can contribute something to the repertoire.  ^____^  Thank you for all your support.

Sublime Extrafine Merino DK Yarn

Hi knitters,
Happy Lunar New Year!
Glad that I got some new Italian yarn with my red-pocket money. (hm..I shouldn't opened the envelop until the 15th of the calendar)  And this time I got something lustrous.

This yarn is made of 67% of extra fine merino wool and 33% of nylon.  At first I thought it contains some silk as it is quite silky to touch.  I was wrong.  (it does look silky, doesn't it?)

Anyway, I first bought two balls of Sublime merino dk.  The yarn is such an woolly appeal and I was so eager to make something great out of it.   Must not have a wooly  head while I am designing the pattern.  The color is also wonderful.  I believe the white string around the merino is the nylon part.  It's almost a sin to take your eyes away from it.  Innovative appearance.

I was about to make something for this Valentine's.  Well, it's probably good for next year. My fault: slow progress. 

I knitted with US#6 needles.  Well, so far so good.  Easy to handle, soft to touch.  So far no complaint about it except it's high cost.  Yet, I would say: it is worth the price.  Will blog about the scarflet soon.

HAPPY KNITTING
