I have resisted the urge to start new projects remaining focused on trying to get some finished!
This week's project choice is my beautiful Wednesday sweater.
The pattern is the Wednesday Sweater by Petiteknit. It's a joy to knit and I particularly like the half twisted rib cuffs.
I used Drops Alaska held double with Sysleriget silk mohair in 'Unicorn Party' colourway! The combination is glorious. The Syslerigret was a treat but I would definitley buy it again. This is going to be a favourite sweater.
For my 2023g challenge I think I'll just weight the balls for weight that I knit rather than the sweater for weight as its huge. I am hoping I can get the 2nd sleeve done this week then it will be ready to wear when we get some old weather.
Well, I've seen a forecast for another 'Beast from the East' with lots of snow and icy weather, so I reckon your lovely sweater will be a very useful garment to have.
ReplyDeleteThank you for answering my query about circular needles on a previous post.
