If I could knit it all over again...

I saw this IK link on Amy(teruterubouzu)'s blog, 'and knitting'
Thanks!

What are your favorite yarn(s)? : 100% wool! Superwash, if available, please. Cascade 220 in Quatro or Tweeds would be my ultimate choice. Greens! Oranges! A skein of Oatmeal would be wonderful... My favorite wool shawl is made in Quatro color 9435. I would have to settle for what I can find here in the boondocks though... which atm means mail-order from Knitpicks. And YES, I will order now. When this poison ivy finally goes away, putting my hands in a box of new yarn will be sooooo delicious...




My ability to knit and to type has been dampened some by poison ivy. I appear to have had one of the 'serious type of reactions' to this climbing vine. It doesn't climb trees up north... just lies nicely on the ground with its three leaves easy to spot. :o(

If I could plan the chart for the dog coat again it would be like this. It is very similar to the actual WIP, but somewhat different.

More knitting news in a few days.. I hope.

Ooooooo... I very much like the 2nd chart. I like the radiating-ness in it. I love charts and graphs and all things plotted!! :)

This would make a great fair isle pattern design, and the one below. I'm just about ready to get started on the natural colored one. Happy knitting... Liz
