RSSQuinn Pattern Posted!
August 17th, 2006 | View Comments
If you keep tabs on my progress bars to your left, you may have noticed that Quinn #2 hit 100% a couple days ago. You know what that means? I finished writing the pattern and posted it!
The complete package is a 9-page pdf, with nice big photos and instructions in charted and written form. I daresay it looks like a real knitting pattern.
I’m pretty pleased with what I put together, although the true judges will be you, my fellow knitters. I had a lot of fun designing Quinn, I hope you will have a lot of fun knitting it!

Thank you! I have been looking forward to this!

I subtracted two repeats from the top band and fudged the pickups to complete the bag over 128 stitches. I’m writing to say that this smaller version of the top band makes a great headband/earwarmer! Even my husband likes it, so I’ll definitely be doing that again!

Awesome! I’m glad to hear it worked out!

[…] put the needles down and step away from the knitting September 16th, 2006 Apparently, I am to stupid to be allowed to knit. I am attempting to knit up Quinn; a beautiful cabled bag with wonderfully written directions, which I am unable to read. Quinn starts out by knitting a top band then picking up stitches around and knitting down. I have now knit the top band twice and have to rip it and knit it again, because of my own stupidity. *sigh* For now I am putting Quinn aside and will pick it up again later.  I need to work on something else for a while to prove that I am actually able to read directions and finish a project. Socks, maybe I’ll work on some socks.

I love this bag! I have to make a earwarmer first then I am casting on…Just wondering if anyone else used the top cable to make an earwarmer? Did you decrease at all for behind the neck? Would love to hear. Great job on the pattern, and thanks…

I’m an adventurous beginner who decided to try her luck on this beautiful bag…but there’s something about picking up the stitches that I’m totally not getting. Am I supposed to be picking up the stitches with the wrong side facing me? I’ve frogged this part 3 times :/
I hope you can help!
