I finished a pair of socks that were started some time ago, maybe 2020, I finished a cable sweater for my granddaughter yesterday, and it will still be too big for her I’m sure. TWO UFO’s out of the bags! I frogged about half of a pair of socks done with a herringbone pattern–while knitting on a plane during turbulence I dropped several stitches, and never could figure out how to fix it. They sat in a bag for six years. I pulled them out and I"m using a rib pattern from Wanderlust to get them finished. So satisfying to get rid of UFOs.
Just finished a Harry Potter Scarf for my husband. Yarn from Tanis Fiber Arts, pattern from Tanis Gray. This is shorter than the pattern calls for, but as long as he wanted it.
I’ve been swatching for the Mood cardigan using only yarns from my stash. I did not like the look of the fabric a single strand of fingering produced, had many yarn issues, and lordy that lace pattern takes attention, but I love its look. Finally found a great combo in dbl stranding Holst Garn Coast and Squishy Lace from Dragonfly Fibers. Today I’ll soak it and block it and figure out my cast on number.
I’m more of an orangey-pink gal, it looks better on me, but this yarn was called soft coral, and it is really a light bubble gum pink in my view. You shall see it live in a few weeks!
