Knitting News

 

Good morning! How are you?

It's been busy around here and yet in the evening I am relieved to sit and knit and gather my thoughts. The past few days I have not worked on the second birch leaf shawl (which is in the above photo) because I have been focusing on finishing the third and final Christmas stocking.

I am so pleased to tell you that I completed the stocking knitting and now I am faced with the dreaded duplicate stitching of a name. Sigh. I am terrible at duplicate stitch! 

I am romantically thinking of what will be my next knitting project. A pair of socks is always easy for me if they are plain, or maybe a fingering weight shawl... stay tuned. I need easy and light in these coming days.

 
What are you working on this week?

  3. I was hoping to finish a pair of socks but I am deep in the joy of shawl knitting right now although my progress feels slow. Hope the stocking knitting goes well.

  5. Oh Oh I say whatever floats your boat! If you have that sock yarn jumping out to be knit, go for it. If you need the slow and steady of a shawl ....then try that?

  6. I love the new version of the birch leaf shawl - such a versatile colour and it looks so very squishy!

  8. I always think of socks when it comes to fingering weight. Although I do have that Joji Locatelli cowl I want to frog and to maybe knit another of her fingering cowls that has a mix of stitches. However, no more shawls for me once I finish my Free Your Fade. That lace looks amazing in your shawl; kudos to you on your patience.

  9. That new shawl will also be pretty. You do choose pretty colors. Socks or a shawl - either are lovely summer time knits.
