Another Dale of Norway sweater completed! This is my first attempt at using Stork Yarn but I think that I am in love! Oh so soft and easy to work with - what a pleasure. Dalegarn NR 142- Pattern 14208. Knit on size 1 needles with a great lacey pattern at the bottom, this is going to be so sweet on a newborn.
Fun lace work -----------
but you really have to pay attention to the 12 row repeat! This is why I tend not to do lace work - It can make me crazy if I miss one stitch. Hubby was amazed to see so much of it done but to be really honest - I had to turn off the tv, phone, and be as quiet as possible so I didn't screw this up!
Two new Vintage Knitting Totes have been added to my collection. To the left is an English style tapestry knitting tote. The English style totes have a round bottom and a square top giving them a wonderful look. They also used all leather for the strap and top which makes them much more sturdy than the "pleather" totes that were made in the USA. And this one is so funky, I just had to have it. I wasn't really so sure that it was a knitting tote until it arrived in the mail. I have never seen anything like this one - so I took a chance and got it! When it arrived, I ripped the packaging open and to my surprise it really is a knitting tote! The riveted hole on the top gave it away. I am not a big golf fan but this tote just had to be added to the collection. A pocket it the front and a pocket in the back make it very useful to carry around needles and extras. It is in great shape and I am glad I took a chance on it!

Lovely sweater!! Neat knitting totes too!
I am at a loss for words on how beautiful your work is---that baby sweater is gorgeous. I have never tried a Dale of Norway but have always wanted to do one. Do you buy your yarn and patterns on line or at a yarn store? I am out in Las Vegas and I have no idea where to look. We do have two yarn stores but to be honest I haven't seen any pattern there
Dear Carol,
I buy my Dale books at yarn stores and the older issues I find every once in a while at yarn stores - hidden in sale bins. Ebay is a great place if you know which book you want - some sellers have pictures of the different patterns in the books but ebay can be very expensive too. I buy my yarn wherever I can get it on sale or on webs.com. Webs offers a 20 - 25% discount and is the cheapest source I can find. Ebay has baby ull but you don't know the condition of the yarn and everyone bids on it. Email me if you have any questions Sue
Thanks so much Sue. I have been scouting around the internet and found a few places to order the books and yarn. I checked here in Vegas and they don't carry them in the yarn stores. I sure miss New England as I could find almost everything I wanted there. My daughter, Pam, from Lulah Knits is checking out her stores and said she would mail it to me. I am looking for Dale of Norway #164 so I can look through it and decide. Thanks again and Happy Knitting.
