Not to be confused with test knits that are currently being worked on all over blog-land…. these are finished objects knit with Plucky yarns that customers have done for themselves (or as as gifts) and have graciously provided pictures for me to post in a gallery. So, please check back often (gallery can be found on my sidebar).
Sidewinders from AnnieKnits - Yarn: 100% Merino Wool Fingering A Thistle. Wow Annie – these are so clever!
Embossed Leaves (Interweave – Winter, 2005) 100% Merino fingering weight – Pumpkin Latte – knit by the lovely (and very speedy) Melana (who also knit the fingerless gloves from a few posts back). Melana very generously offered to send these to me, but I just don’t have the heart to take them from her. It’s coming into Fall Melana, you must wear them and wear them proudly!
100% Merino Fingering Weight in Gypsy Skirt - knit by my favorite editor at National Geographic: The ever so sassy Sheila for her best friend, Jade, who lives in L.A. Sheila accidentally knit the scarf on a size 5 and size 6 needle but says it can’t really be detected in the finished object. Upon further reflection she says there may be some wisdom in having the purl row knit on a size 6 as it makes it easier to do the k2tog’s. Perhaps she has stumbled upon some rather EZ-ish…. yes, Sheila, I think you may have!
Monkey – 100% Merino Fingering weight, Basil Bliss. Knit by the very industrious and super busy Naomi to match her green Dansko’s (perfect match Naomi!).
They are all just so lovely that I had to share. Please, keep the photos coming….. what a treat they are!

OOOO, gosh. Monkeys. I sent you an email about them last night. Hmmm…I do have a skein of Basil Bliss in the stash.

But wait I’d need sock yarn, not cash. I’m thinking BB instead of LLEI

You’ve doubled the punch of my gift to Jade–you’ve made her and the Plucky Yarn scarf “famous”! Thanks, Plucky Sarah D.!!!!
