October 13, 2010 Kristen Jancuk
I've got picures to show you guys. TWO projects, in fact. Blogger is having none of it. I'll mark this down as day # 11 squillion that I'm having issues with Blogger.

I really should find a new home . . .

Tomorrow is the last day for intro pricing on the Cellophane Flowers cardigan pattern! It will jump back up to the regular price on Wednesday so grab it now. Use code LUCYINTHESKY at checkout. #cellophanecardi #sweaterknitting #sweaterweather #sweaterpattern #hedgehogfibres
Mildly obsessed with this stitch pattern so you’ll probably see it in everything I design next year. #knitdesign #bodieislandshawl #bodieislandnmkal #shawlknitting #shawlpattern
Confession: I’ve had the Bodie Island shawl finished for *weeks* and just finally managed to block it. I hate blocking wires. Don’t get me wrong—they’re amazing and improve your finished shawl’s appearance by approximately 100%, but I hate actually using them. Something about sitting with a lap full of wet wool painstakingly running the wire through all 3 edges is just not enjoyable. 😝. But like I said—you can’t argue with the results! Bodie Island is currently being knit as my annual not-mystery knit-a-long project. For everyone not participating in the NMKAL, the final pattern will be available in early December! #bodieislandshawl #bodieislandnmkal #shawlknitting #knitshawl #fofriday
As a small indie designer, I wear a lot of hats in my business. I often model my own designs, I usually knit my samples myself, and of course I do all business-y stuff: marketing, finance, social media, and so on. One thing I can’t do, though, is edit my own patterns. And those first drafts need a LOT of editing! That’s why I’m so thankful for my tech editing wizard, @tricotedit, who is indispensable in transforming a jumble of mismatched numbers into a functional pattern. She put many hours into bringing Cellophane Flowers to life and I’m so grateful! 😘 (Cellophane Flowers is live on Ravelry and $1 off the first week with code LUCYINTHESKY) #cellophanecardi #sweaterweather #knitsweater #handknitsweater
I’ll be honest: Cellophane Flowers was a little outside my comfort zone. I tend toward neutrals, jewel tones and rich autumn hues. A bright yellow cardigan with pops of neon pink is not something I ever imagined I’d have in my wardrobe—but it totally works. I love how it kicks this plain tshirt-and-jeans combo up a notch. Sometimes it’s good to get outside your comfort zone. ❓Which gorgeous @hedgehogfibres colorway would you use for your dream cardigan? #cellophanecardi #sweaterweather #knitcardigan #knitdesign #hedgehogfibres
✨L I V E N O W✨ Cellophane Flowers—my final sweater pattern for 2019—is up on @hi.ravelry! Save $1 on the price this week with code LUCYINTHESKY ✨ Thinking socks and shawls were having all the fun with speckled yarns, I set out to design a speckle-friendly sweater. Cellophane Flowers features bold chunky cables that stand out against the color variations in the yarn, and squishy Fisherman’s Rib that holds its own against all-over speckling. It also features a cozy shawl collar and POCKETS! ✨ ▪️Sizes: XS - 4X; 32.25 - 60.75” finished bust + approx 2” opening at the front ▪️Construction: bottom-up drop shoulder ▪️Yarn: @hedgehogfibres Merino Aran in Dijon ▪️Techniques: cables, working into the row below, short rows, simple seaming #cellophanecardi #sweaterknitting #sweaterpattern #knitsweater #cardigan #sweaterweather
See you tomorrow! 👋🏼 #cellophanecardi #sweaterknitting #handknitsweater #knitcardigan #knittingpattern
Did I mention? POCKETS! Pocket revolution, pockets for everyone! I wanted this to be a go-to, easy fit cardi, so pockets were essential. These pockets are knit with the sweater, so all you have to do to finish them is sew the bottom edge down, easy peasy. 🙌🏼 Are you signed up for my newsletter? Subscribers get the best intro pricing on every new indie pattern, so make sure you’re signed up before the Cellophane Flowers cardigan goes LIVE on Wednesday. 💌 (Link in bio) #cellophanecardi #sweaterknitting #sweaterweather #knitdesign #hedgehogfibres #speckledyarn
Me: Pattern photos time! Little tree: It’s my time to shine! 🍁 Had amazing light and the last gasp of the autumn colors yesterday, so I’m very happy with the way the photos came together for my Cellophane Flowers cardi. Finishing touches and the pattern launches Wednesday! #cellophanecardi #sweaterpattern #sweaterknitting #handknitsweater
