I have one new WIP this week, Twisted Ankles by Leethal.
I am knitting these in Garnstudio Drops Alaska held double. I have yet to cast on the second one, but will do so tonight. I love the satisfaction that comes from cables. This is the first project I have done where cables intersect and change direction at different rates, and it definitely keeps me on my toes!
Next up is Shapeshifter, which I started a couple of weeks ago. I am about halfway through it right now (going by pattern), but may add a few extra inches to make a bigger hood.
The yarn is Araucania Nature Wool Multy, sadly I don't remember the colourway but it is gorgeous! Really lovely warm Autumn/Winter tones. This is also the project I figured out how to knit properly! Turns out I knit in Eastern European style, but was trying to apply continental knitting to it. Now I have it figured out, though it does mean having to adjust techniques for increases and decreases. I am finding it much faster now I know what to do!Finally, is Lizard Ridge. The block I started many moons ago is still in progress (I can hear the cackling from certain people.... shoosht!), but I am aiming to have this one done by Christmas!
It is the same problem I had before - mind numbing boredom. I need to get this done so have plans to only work on this in December. Plans change, so don't hold me to that!
I promised a peek at my latest yarn purchases, so here they are
Not so much a purchase, as was foisted upon me. |
