Thank you! I am hoping to finish up the second mitt and get the pattern out for editing within the next couple of weeks, so hopefully release in early May!

I like the Cocoa Rosa! especially as fingerless mitts/gloves. I can’t wait for the pattern.
I tend to knit more texture but I am easily side-tracked by color, hehehe.

Comment on DIY magnetic spice rack by catherine

Ooooh, neat idea! Unfortunately I have not worked with magnetic primer before so I don’t know how much weight it can take. I do know that the containers I use are quite light (according to the scale at my co-op, they are about half to three-quarters of an ounce). Remember also that the spices themselves are not very heavy at all, so if you use small containers, you are probably looking at weights of around 1 oz. However, if you want to get bigger tins, that will increase your weight correspondingly.

If you can, maybe try some primer out on a piece of wood and see how much it holds?

Um, I have been wanting to do this forever NC now we finally have a place to do so. What I would prefer to do is magnetic primer and then a thin layer of pain over it to turn a wall space into the “rack” area. I am worried the spices and containers will be too heavy and it won’t work. Got any ideas?!

Hi Diane,

When working in the round, you will want to purl every row (creating a reverse stst piece of knitting). Hope that helps!
