Postby babyroo » Sun Jun 06, 2010 5:25 pm

This thread is for the knit-along of either the Slething Hoodie or Ridinghood Sweater from Sugarbubbie.

0-6- 425 yards
6-12 525 yards
12-18 575 yards
18-24 600 yards
2/3 650 yards
4/5 725 yards

DK yarn , from 650-1150 yards will be requred.

(pics taken from Ravelry)

We are aiming to start around the middle of June (so that DIY Fairy is out of the way) but this will be ongoing so you don't need to join in right at the start - everyone will be welcome at any time!!

Sleuthing Hoodie pattern can be purchased on Hyenacart or ravelry

Ridinghood babydoll sweater pattern can be purchased on Hyenacart or ravelry

I would choose Ravelry as you can download the pattern instantly rather than waiting for it to be emailed to you!

YAY! I'll post my progress so far. I've bought the pattern for the sleuthing hoody and that it! But I'm aiming to visit the wool shop this week :giggle:

I have both patterns and the yarn, I already started a riding hood too :oops: wasn't sure when it was to be starting, I might have to wait until I can join the neck though because my interchangeable needles still haven't arrived

Are either patterns on circular needles? And approx how much yarn do you need? I have seom yarn but not sure it will be enough, and I won't be buying any more in the near future :(

Both use circular needles. I've just edited the first post with approximate yarn requirements (taken from the links posted)

I can't decide which to make now. That picture of the Ridinghood one looks much better than the one I saw elsewhere.

The answer is both then :giggle: :giggle:

I'm not sure either. I was going to do the Sleuthing Hoodie for Harry as I usually make things for Katie, but I do love the look of the Ridinghood

Gonna try this as I need to expand my knitting skills. I love the Red Riding hoodie :cry: for having a boy. Don't get me wrong as the sleuthing hoodie is great but that Red Riding hoodie ........... :( :giggle:

I've knitted both already and have no immediate plans to knit more (unless asked!). I'm happy to help with any questions as people knit along though.
