I cast on a new shawl, shh! wrap, and have moved right along even though I am using lace weight yarn instead of the sport weight called for in the pattern.
I like a very light shawl and will get more use out of it this way-we will see what happens to the size!
I am also working on the sock while I wait to pick up Will after school!
I also dug in the stash and found some more silk yarn for a different scarf for the knitting machine.
And this project is calling me, an article from last issue of Spin Off.
Oh my goodness! I love that mitt pattern. I'm thinking left over Cascade 220 fingering weight.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous projects!!! My knitting mojo is on hold at the moment. This heat and humidity is killing me. I'd even take a big thunderstorm if it would blow it all out to sea.
ReplyDeleteBlack and yellow always look so striking together. Happy knitting!!!
ReplyDeleteHope Bill is continuing to heal up from his surgery!
oh those mitts!!!! Heal well BILL
ReplyDeleteFabulous projects and plans. My knitting has stalled - very little progress on anything on my needles.
ReplyDeleteThose mitts are cute!
ReplyDeleteOOoo you are knitting strong, my friend!! lots of good stuff. I have not thought about it too much, but you're right, my favorite wraps and shawls are with the lightest weights of yarn. Hmm. Maybe I'm not as over knitting them as I thought ...
ReplyDeleteMy mojo is back too. I felt my excitement kick in when I read your post :)
