My new cowl/turtleneck sweater with pockets is blocking and then I can weave in the ends and I'm a third of the way into a purple waistcoat with bobbles. In the past few weeks I've decided all these contradictory plans for my next sweater:
My new cowl/turtleneck sweater with pockets is blocking and then I can weave in the ends and I'm a third of the way into a purple waistcoat with bobbles. In the past few weeks I've decided all these contradictory plans for my next sweater:
- a 2nd fair isle waistcoat with the pattern I bought last spring (Starnkeeker by Kate Davies)
- the pullover hoodie my sister made for her visit here (Traveler hoodie by Andrea Mowry) in peach like my favorite cotton hoodie
- the gray zipper jacket I've been meaning to make for years (Monte Rosa by Isabell Kraemer, with modifications)
- a pullover with Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt in that lovely cream and natural tweed, 2523
- I should finally make a sweater in Drops Air (but what?)
