Juno Regina

January 8, 2008 By Carole

That red coat I mentioned in yesterday’s post? I also needed a scarf to wear with it. When I saw Miriam’s Juno Regina pattern I knew it was just the thing.

The yarn, ironically enough, is some lace weight that Miriam herself dyed for me last winter. So, both the yarn and the pattern come from the same brilliant designer.

It’s nice that she’s also my friend.

I love the way the colors swirl and move throughout the length of the scarf. Speaking of the length, it’s only about 1/2 the length of the original design. I wanted it shorter so it would be just a simple neck wrap.

Light as a feather but very warm and beautiful.

It’s like getting a hug from Miriam every time I wear it.

    How beautiful! Juno Regina is on my lace list, and now that I’ve seen yours I’m even more excited about it.

    I have that in my queue. Still on the look out for the yarn she used- Helen’s Laces in the Manzanita colorway. Should probably just order it from my LYS. It doesn’t seem like a color many carry for some reason. Love the color and mods of yours. No modeled shots?

    Of course you needed a scarf. How are you set for mittens? 🙂 It’s gorgeous! A nice width to scrunch up around your neck and keep the cold out.

    Awww, Carole, beautiful…the post and the Juno Regina!

    Very nice. After seeing yours, I may have to give up on the baby silk and try a hand dyed yarn. I wasn’t sure how it would compete with the diamonds.

  11. Chris says

    January 8, 2008 at 8:51 am

    Gorgeous!

  12. Lynne says

    BEAUTIFUL!! Mim’s pattern is on the top of my list this winter as well. The colors in her yarn are stunning…all of my favorites wrapped up in one!

  16. Kelly says

    Very pretty. I think I’d like to give this a try, I’m looking to jump into lace.

  22. Beth says

    January 8, 2008 at 10:23 am

    It’s very pretty, Carole. Miriam did a beautiful job dyeing the yarn for you.

  23. Miriam says

    January 8, 2008 at 10:27 am

    Aw! Carol you are awesome! I had no idea you were knitting it let alone in the yarn I dyed!

    It should go perfectly with your new Calorimetry (or however the hell it’s spelled).

    *hug*

  31. Lucia says

    January 8, 2008 at 12:46 pm

    This is the time of year for reds, to warm and cheer us until the days get a bit longer. Brava!

    January 8, 2008 at 12:52 pm

    I loved that pattern when I first saw it on Knitty. I love it even more now. Great job, Carole!

    And as far as my mojo goes? Who knows? I’m thinking I might have some other “issues” to deal with!

    Hugs!

    Wow Carole! How undescribably SPECIAL. And a lovely surprise for Mim too, as I see in her comment. 🙂

    I need to dye some red’ish laceweight for it now. I remember watching as she was designing this pattern at Estes last summer and can’t wait to make it!

    oh i love that yarn!

    i just casted on for this a few days ago. i’m a beginner lace knitter though so we’ll see how it goes. i’m scared to moved past the set up. 🙂

    A match made in heaven! Variegated yarns can be so tricky with any lace pattern, and yet this looks perfect!

  41. Brenda says

    January 8, 2008 at 8:55 pm

    Very pretty! I’m glad I stopped by, as I had forgotten about this pattern, and it is too pretty to forget.

    So pretty, and a nice story to go along with it. That’s a pattern that’s in my queue too.

  44. Beth S. says

    January 9, 2008 at 10:45 am

    I’m surprised at how well it worked with your variegated yarn. I wouldn’t have thought to try that, but the effect is lovely!

    Do I have to queue this one now?… I think I do, sigh… 😉

  45. ~Kristie says

    January 9, 2008 at 2:05 pm

    Am I living under a rock? How did I not know about MimKnits? I just linked over to her blog and am stunned and amazed by all her fabulous designs.

    Your combination of Miriam’s yarn with her pattern is stunning and I bet it looks stunning on.

    Oh no, another pattern to add to my never-ending, constantly-growing, will never get to it in my lifetime queue. 😉

  46. Rachel says

    January 9, 2008 at 2:35 pm

    So pretty! I am in search for the perfect yarn and pattern to go with my red coat, too. I have some silk that I’m getting ready to spin up that goes well, and I may just have to copy you and make Juno Regina as well. Yours is lovely.

  47. Wanda says

    January 10, 2008 at 1:56 pm

    Ever so lovely Carole! I like the Christmas Lights socks, they are very festive.

    sweet scarf – and you’ll be quite the stunning star with your new red coat (which is cool btw)

If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good If there’s one thing the pandemic has been good for, it’s my sourdough game. I actually started learning about making sourdough bread a week before the stay at home orders thanks to @sprboston as he shared his starter and recipe and technique with me. Since then I have kept Mama Cass fed and alive and have baked many loaves of bread. This one might be my best one yet. I did the final proof in the fridge for 24 hours and baked it from its cold state. Great spring and ear and crumb, it was delicious with dinner tonight. #sourdough #sourdoughbread #lookatthatcrumb #lookatthatear #homebakedbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest
