We have five kittens and a beautiful mother cat.  We rarely have kittens because all of our cats are spay\/neutered  These also will all be spay\/neutered when it is time.  This young (and very pregnant) cat showed up at our other rural property up the road.  She is friendly and not a feral cat.  I guess someone’s pet at some time…not sure why she was just left at the side of the road…  We named her Keemun.  She is very thin so I am working on getting some weight on her.  The kittens are doing great and the mother cat (Keemun), even though she is quite young, is a great mother.<\/p>\n\n\n

I have been working on a few blankets (on the Passap E6000). I have a long list and never seem to get caught up…  Just a few samples right now before working on the final blankets.  Yes, samples and swatches are required before getting to the final design. I have not decided on the final stitch techniques…  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The one below is a Quaker design\/pattern knit with Technique 186 on the Passap.  Technique 186 is great for getting a larger size, but the pattern is not as easy to see.  This pattern has a lot of geometric design which seems to get lost with the tuck stitches (see photo of knit sample off the machine). The dark color is dark purple 2\/17 one strand and the white is 2 strands of 2\/24. This was knit at 80-0-80 on the beds (good size for baby blanket). Both back bed needles are on the back bed –breaking the needle rule which is required for tuck .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Designaknit pattern below was edited further before knitting, but you get the idea of how it would look knit in a regular double jacquard without tuck patterning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next blanket is also a work in progress. Still figuring out tensions and a suitable stitch pattern. This sample started at a tighter tension of 3 and I changed it (loosened) to 4 (and will probably knit final blanket at tension 4.2). One strand each color of 2\/24. Next sample will be with 2 strands each color of 2\/24 and higher\/looser tension (with Tech 186 or 187). This blanket is 80-0-80 on the machine 3 color Technique 195. Kept the needle rule of front bed left needle is end and back bed right needle is end, but I will put both on back bed for next sample because of the striping on the right side of the knitting (which you can see in the last photo).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The final blanket is a small baby size. For a larger size 2 strands of each color and a much looser tension will be good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
