Remember when I used to sew things? Since my sewing machine went into the shop, I haven't sewn a stitch. I've had my machine back for weeks now, but I have yet to see if it even works now. What happened? Well my friends, yarn happened. I am smitten with knitting.
Today I cast on the Somewhat Cowl. Never mind that I still have 3 WIP's near completion. I have yet to add the neck ribbing back on Ms. Marigold, and I'm still working away on the sleeves of my Cavern Cardigan. I've decided that I don't like knitting with DPN's. I'm not very good at it.
I had better get used to them because I have more sleeves to knit on my Cropped Cardigan. Did I not mention that one? It was a super fast knit - I got the body worked up in a week. I'm not too happy with the fit. It's a bit small, but in looking at the other projects on Ravelry, this may be how it is supposed to fit. I'm also not happy with the edge, which curls under a bit. I'm thinking about picking up the stitches and knitting some sort of edging, I don't know. I'm not all that invested in it, so it doesn't really matter. I do love this pattern (especially the fast part), so I plan to make it again.
I must confess that I was unable to stay away from that sale at my LYS last week - this yarn just jumped into my bag, oops. Yes, I'm smitten.
