Ravelry did it again. I saw an amazing sweater on the site and clicked once, twice…and POOF. Another item on the “I gotta knit this” list. I’m envisioning a higher neck, long sleeves, and no sparkles…something like the blue sweater second from the top. I love the lace panel and I’m intrigued by “fit as you go.”
I had the opportunity to try out my Calorimetry this morning, and it was lovely. I hardly noticed it was there, and yet my earsies stayed toasty. Wool is a wonderful thing. I made another version of it:
This time I actually followed the directions. It does happen, once in a while. The next one needs to be MYA-sized. The pitiful looks are wearing me down. “But don’t you think I NEED one, Mom???”
The cardigan is done except for the seaming, blocking and end-hiding, and I cast on the matching skirt, so that project is still going strong. Pictures will come when I have some interesting fair isle parts done.
And now, a question: aside from being stylish in some circles, what is the practical use/appeal for fingerless gloves? When my hands are cold, my fingers are the coldest parts. What say you?
My goodness! What a LOVELY blue ear thingy.
