A scarf pattern and something for USM/BOND knitters

FIRST the project I’ve been working on for months . . . The BOND Bombshell. (Ta Da!)

Look closely to the right of the little yarn ball. Right! That’s a USB connection. The BOND Bombshell is a thumb drive (well, wrist drive because it becomes a bracelet) that you can consult in minutes to find every skill you need to make your knitting machine hum . . .  ALL IN ONE CONVENIENT, ORGANIZED, FAST-TO-ACCESS PLACE THAT YOU OWN FOREVER EVEN WHEN YOUTUBE AND I DISAPPEAR. Find out about it HERE.  NOW AVAILABLE ONLY IN THE US AND SHIPPING IS FREE.

SECOND: I forgot to post a link to that blue cabled scarf that I showed on my last video, “Measuring Gauge for Pattern Stitches.” It has a fascinating story behind the basis of the cable design. You can find the link to the pattern in the description below the video, RIGHT HERE. (You might have to click on the “See More” to open up that description box).

THIRD: Thank you for all the emails you have sent me with your knitting triumphs and challenges.

Warm regards, ch

    1. Kathy. I made that from a hand-knitting pattern. 😀 I had already knit several of Kaffe Fassett’s designs by hand (both intarsia and stranded) and I wanted to prove that the BOND machine could be used with hand-knitting yarns and patterns to good effect. I actually made 2 of these jackets, one in each of his colorways and my dear friend Dinah, who owned my beloved (and terrific) local yarn shop, and I would wear them together to trade shows. We drew some attention. 🙂

  1. Dear Cheryl, I’m glad to see that the Kaffe Fassett feather sweater lives on as the background for the thumbdrive bracelet … I fell in love with it the first time I saw the Bond infomercial in the 80’s. Best Regards, Stella S., Fresno, CA

    1. Hi Stella . . . that’s actually the second one I made on the BOND. The first one, which appears on Meet your BOND was for my friend Dinah who owned the local yarn shop. There were two colorways and I made one for her and one for me. Then, when we went to the trade shows in Seattle or to other knitting events, we both would wear them. We turned heads, I tell you. 🙂
