more toast...


What have I been up to lately you might ask?  Well I’ve rekindled my obsession with the pattern, toast, by designer Leslie Friend (visit her blog; a friend to knit with…)
I made sever pairs last winter and they disappeared as fast as I cast them off the needles. This season, I’ve made a pair in Brooklyn Tweeds; Loft, two pairs in Malabrigo lace, colors blue and grey.
I love knitting with my size 2-12” circulars.  They make knitting in the round so much easier than double points.  The results; wrist warmers that are soft, cozy and well just plain fun to wear!



Wonder how long before this batch disappear?

How about you, what is on your needles or?

  2. Oh my! I'm going to have to try these! I just made a pair of crocheted fingerless gloves (Finished Projects) and was thinking about how to make a knitted pair. Thanks for sharing!

    Hugs,

  3. I can see why you love this pattern! These are wonderful, and I love the colors. I could use a pair right this moment, as it is cold and snowing, yet again! xo Gigi

  4. I WILL be making these! I am having a hard time adjusting to the tiny needle size on the 9 & 12" circulars (recently tried and was so frustrated at the lack of needle to hold onto in my hand, that I used two circs to finish). Will give it another go, since more and more are recommending it. Thanks for the pattern share - Tanya
