The frogged Eco wool from my last post is back on the needles again, this time as a cozy winter sweater for D! It’s my own design, and will have nice big pockets, set-in sleeves, and a shawl collar (it’s a cardigan).
It’s working up nice and quickly on 5mm (US 8) needles as a break from smaller stuff, and I got some nice knitting time in the car over the weekend.
A little peek at what I’m working on right now – it’s great fun, and I hope to be able to share very very soon!
A completed, but not quite right, cardigan out of Eco Wool…
…ripped.
New stuff? I started a new quilt!
Knitting with Handmaiden Casbah and Dream in Color Everlasting today.
Cleaning up the garden.
P.S. New ‘like’ button below each blog post! Just in case you don’t feel like leaving a comment :)
I didn’t buy a lot of stuff at Rhinebeck this year, because the budget (and space) is tight, plus we traveled with just carry on luggage! I didn’t even buy any fiber, which is a bit weird since it was the only thing I had on my list. Hm.
Two fat quarters of wool herringbone, and a Rhinebeck project bag.
DK weight from Greenwood Hill Merino, which I always ogle!
Beautiful buttons from the inimitable Jennie the potter – I love the gingko leaves.
A skein of squishy, bouncy sock yarn from Green Mountain Spinnery.
A coffee scoop from Chester P. Basil’s. I want one of everything from them!
We do a secret gift exchange at the Rhinebeck house, and I received this pretty half apron from Christina! Thank you lovely lady!
