I finally finished seaming my mom's Klaralund on December 20, learning how to do both a backstitch seam (for putting the sleeves onto the body) and the...
Megan, it looks lovely! I love #88 -- that's the color of the afghan in the back of the book, which I have considered making. . . "Nothing like jumping in and ...
I'm a little late for the knit-a-long, but I just have to make this sweater and at least now I can benefit from everyone's experience! I am going to use...
I made mine in Kureyon (finished it a couple of weeks ago). Be sure to wash your gauge swatch! Mine went from 17 sts/4 in to 16 sts/4 in after washing. I...
Hi Liz, Thanks for your post....I also came upon this website to look at the finished Klaralunds because I will be making it too....but thought most everyone...
Hi! I'm a late starter too, because I was having a yarn dilemma. I was debating on using Noro yarns or something else. I was waiting for woolneedlework.com...
Hi Kathy, It looks great so far! I think it'll be a really pretty combo! I used a different Filatura - Zara - to make a scarf over Christmas and it's lovely...
Thanks, Roxanne. Your Zara scarf is really great. I love Filatura yarns. Zar One (wool/acrylic chunky weight) is another one of my favorites. I almost have...
Oh dear...and here I thought I was the only one thinking of 2 Klaralunds...LOL If my first works out well, I may just do the second...in fact, I have two...
Hello all, I'm also a late starter but due to procrastination! :-) I bought Silk Garden in shade 124 last July and decided that it would be great for ...
Hi Marian, Sounds nice...do you have a picture of it posted? Roxanne. marian poller <m_poller@...> wrote: I finished my Klaralund, but I changed it to a...
Glad to see that a few of you are still planning on knitting up the Klaralund. I've been waiting to see if anybody did it in something other than Noro. I...
Hi Kim, It snowed in Las Vegas? Yikes! And how about a cotton for the Klaralund? I think I saw it online somewhere done in a cotton yarn and it turned out...
In fact, I found the link...here you go... http://countrygirlzine.us/knit/index.php?cat=6 Roxanne Delorme <roxanne_delorme@...> wrote: Hi Kim, It snowed...
I would definitely do the sweater in the round if I weren't using noro. Maybe I will have to do a second one too! I started today on the body and I just love...
I think somebody did a version in TLC Amore', a yarn which I recently used for a baby sweater and I was pretty pleased with it. I think the photo might be...
Hello! I am posting for the first time, but have recently finished all the pieces for my Klaralund in Silk Garden #65. The colorway is really pretty knitted...
Dear Berni, Congratulations on finishing Klaralund! I have a blocking kit that I ordered from somewhere on the internet (I wish I remembered where!) that...
I was reading the digest, and thinking about the mini-Klaralund I did for my 7 year old in Red Heart SS. So I just went and took a photo of it and will post...
Berni, Here's some more blocking tips: Buy a piece of foam core or art board. A poster size one can be had at Micheal's for $1.99. While you are there, pick up...
Hi all, I'm working on a 2X sized Klaralund and have some questions about upsizing the sleeves' width around the shoulders. Following the biggest pattern...
Hi everyone, I finished my Klaralund a while back, but I would like for it to be just a tad smaller. I remember a long time ago that several people washed...
The washer was mamacate, and you can find some good info about her experience with washing Klaralund in her archives at mamacate.blogspot.com. It was probably...
Thanks Ruanne. I was meaning to reply, and I appreciate the reminder! Yup, I washed Klara. Here's a link directly to the Klaralund section of my blog (I've...
Tara, Regarding increasing 6 stitches over 12 inches, you usually see increases paired, like one at each end of the row. Since the end stitches are very...
... Thanks for responding Julie! It occurred to me (too late of course) that I probably should have done the increases BEFORE I got to the extended garter...
HI, I'm kind of slow with the digital camera but finally have a nice shot (check my blog) of the finished Klaralund which I changed to raglan style. I also...
HI, I've put a photo of the raglan klaralund under Marian in the photo album section. What is interesting is how the yarn works in a raglan and also in sleeves...
