Knitty's Brioche Malagaiter - kind of

Here it is. I whipped this up with some Kureyon I have in my stash and size 2 plates on the USM. I think this works better for me as a neck-warmer though. This is just plan stockinette
not ribbing like the pattern has suggested. I like the colors of this... and on the look out for more silk garden.

Magknits is up

Somehow I'm usually drawn to the patterns on magknits, but this month I found two patterns that I like. K-chan and Brioche Malagaiter. I have yarn for both of these as well. I'll use my USM to do the brioche in flat stockinette and add the little tie on top to see how it turns out. K-chan will have to wait till after the holidays. Still trying to figure out here what I'm going to make for the girls. I'm thinking about cotton flannel nightgowns for them (somehow you cannot find cotton flannel nightgowns anywhere. They use something called poly flannel and of course fire retardant. Yuck!)
