Whew, made it into the photo album in time. Granted it is pending; but I did get the pic into Loopy on time. Finished mine at 1:00 a.m. on 01/04. Ran out of yarn, Loopy was out of it, finally found some and it was delivered on the 3rd, up all nighter.

Anyway, happy to have been able to join in and have fun designing it as I went along.

Thank you Sherri & elves, both MO & CO

I completed the challenge…but how do I send you my photo? Do I just send it to your e-mail addy? I looked at the photo gallery and I don’t see anything about uploading a picture. Please let me know!

I bought 4 skeins of Pashmina for a Delancey cardigan. The main color (grasshopper) didn’t contrast with the contrast color (Tern) and I switched the main color to Cobolt, which I also bought from the Loopy Ewe. Can I still get my extra FSB credits?
Please let me know!

I’m a little late to the party and I just bought two skeins of MT Sport in Iris. My plan was to make a shawl. I should have the yarn by the end of November, so now I have to come up with a beautiful shawl pattern that will be my Christmas gift to me. YAY, my first Loopy Ewe challenge, I’m so excited!!!

I designed a collar for over my plain shirts to dress them up a bit. It has a double-strand cabled neckband open at the front, with the body of it extending a little over my shoulders. The body is also cabled, with raglan increases, and buttons closed in the front. Finished the band, working down the body. Bought two skeins, looks like both will be fully used up.

Loving working with this yarn. It is my first Tosh experience :O)

I am excited about the Fourth Quarter Challenge. I have a Stephen West shawl pattern in mind. It uses three skeins of Madeline Tosh for a total of 790 yds but you do not use a full skein of any color. Does this pattern meet the requirements of the challenge?

Man, I wish I had been working for a few months by this point so I could participate in this challenge. But it looks like it’s going to be out of my realm of possibility. I really would love to knit up a little sweater in Madelinetosh too.

I just bought Ginger Madeline Tosh and a pattern named Maureen! Maybe I will really knit Maureen’s socks! I will swatch it to see if I can learn the serious cables and if my dpn knitting is a fluke.

I really need to knit down my stash, as I’m beginning to run out of space for it, but I do have a couple of skeins of MT Sock in Tart and Cherry that I plan on using to knit up the Terpsichore shawl with.
