One down, one to go…
The sweater is finished and it’s not half bad at all considering I simply used yarn that was already in my stash. Since I didn’t have enough chunky yarn, I used a pink DK yarn and a wine red DK yarn simultaneously, so I suppose it’s more “double-double” than true chunk.
Still, it looks good plus it’s lovely and warm and cuddly. Not bad for about 2 weeks of knitting as and when.
Knit 1, Purl 1…
I was bought a copy of Stitch ‘n’ Bitch for Christmas and I’ve been knee-deep in knitting projects ever since. I’ve been knitting for years but there’s nothing like a good reference book (complete with a stack of new patterns) to really get you going again.
So far I’ve started a new poncho and a new chunky sweater to replace an old one that really needs to be relegated to the nearest bin.
So much so that I’ve had to start a new Knitting category as I think that’s going to be my main posting topic for the next few months.
