Wrenna




Yarn: Twinkle Soft Chunky #54 Quartz - 4 balls


Pattern: Another French Girl Knits pattern. Wrenna by Kristeen Griffin-Grimes.


Comments: It took me 4 days to knit this. I'm very bummed, though, because it is too big for me. I made the smallest size, and my gauge was even a little tight. My shoulders are just too narrow to keep it up. There may be an error in that pattern. I'm going to email Kristeen to see if I'm correct. Also, it took me a little bit more than the 3 balls called for in the pattern.

Veronique







Pattern: Veronique by Kristeen Griffin-Grimes from French Girl Knits



Yarn: Rowan Kidsilk Haze #580 - just a hair over 2 balls



Comments: I made this to teach as a class at Yarntopia. Easy knit. There is minimal seaming, but you have to be careful when you knit with Kidsilk Haze. It is so delicate, that you really have to be conscious of each stitch you knit.
