16 January 2019

I've been quiet for awhile and that's because I've been knitting. Cooperatively, Lyn and I knitted the Swan's Twist Top using Knit One Crochet Too's Daisy. The yarn is a blend of linen, silk and hemp. It has a wonderful drape. I will include a picture as soon as I have a model to put it on.

Aside from that I've been knitting away on my second version of John's Sweater. The fingering weight of JaggerSpun Heathers in Dewberry knits wonderfully. The back is finished and the calculations are working out. It helps to have a live dress model to try the knitting on. I've started the front. The only thought required was for how many pattern repeats will fit and which repeat do I start with.

As always, stop by the shop and see what has been done. You're always welcome to join us at the table to sit and knit any time the shop is open.
