Giveaway Winner and a knitting update!

The Random Number generator has picked Timiae as the winner of my On My Way ebook! Congratulations Timiae, I’ve sent you an email :)

I was nearly done this sweater back that I started in Vancouver, but it was apparent that I didn’t have enough of this Anzula Haiku to finish the project so I ripped it out. I’m not giving up on the wrap sweater concept though!

I cast off and blocked this new shawl design and I am so in love with it! I used 2 skeins of Alisha Goes Around fingering weight yarn, and I’m starting another in laceweight so you can see how that looks.

I swatched for a new sweater in Tosh Vintage. It’s so squishy, especially after all the very rustic wooly yarns I’ve been knitting lately. Gosh I love knitting sweaters. Too bad I don’t have bionic wrists or something though, because my wrist has been pretty grumpy lately.

I’m also jonesing for a nice plain sweater in a cozy brown, so I dug up this interesting yarn that’s been in my stash for ages.

It’s a very round, multiplied yarn similar to Zara, and I knit up a swatch to 6 sts/in on 3.75mm. I didn’t get this yarn in Japan, but rather from a now-defunct yarn shop in a Chinese mall in Markham!
