toast, toast and more toast

Friday, March 18, 2011

Have you made some yet?
Back in December, I had a back injury which required a lot of resting of my back. I decided to keep casting on for toast. All knit out of Portland Tweed.
I ended up with about 7 pairs. I have 4 left. So, here's what I am thinking. I'm going to put 3 pairs (2 made out of 5004 tidal foam and 1 made out of 5003 gull grey) in the shop on Monday at around 12p.m. EST.
The fourth pair, the dark grey pair, ended up being a little shorter. I guess there was a bit of a yardage problem in that ball.
They still fit fine. And do the job of keeping you a little warmer.


I'd love to give this pair to the 13th commenter.
{Hmmm. Wondering if that will work.}
Have a fabulous weekend!

    ahh, so lovely! I still have not made any Toast for myself, and now I can't figure out why! maybe because I don't have any dark gray tweed yarn. hmm...

    also not 13th, but helping to get there... ;)

  16. I am lucky in already having a pair of beautiful Toasty mitts made last winter. I discovered your pattern and blog via the terrific Pipany's blog.

    And so, even if I were number 13, I would give my position to another commenter who might not already be as lucky as I am.

    Best wishes!

  55. I have made Toasty but not Toast. Love them, wear them every week at least!! I have a question about the gray pair. Do you knit two at a time, or how did you end up with them matching with a yarn shortage?? Just curious how you have such super foresight!
