Next Project

Yarn:BlueMoon Fiber Arts Watermelon Tourmaline & Farmhouse
Needles: US sz 5
6"" wide, 75" long
Start: 3/3/07
Finish: 3/10/07




The scarf is finished but not blocked yet. My enthusiasm started to dye as the scarf grew longer. I stopped at 75" and I am sure it will stretch a little bit once it is blocked. I still have a lot of yarn left. I can make a shorter scarf. I have checked BFA site, they are out of medium weight sock yarn. I was on time once. I wanted to knit something for myself, something I can actually wear besides scarves and socks. I decided on Everyday Cardigan from Kpixie. After looking the yarn selection forever I decided on Peace Fleece Volgasippi Blue. The description for the yarn was faded denim blue with lilac specs. But the yarn I got has teal/green undertone. Although I would have preferred more blue, it is still pretty color so I started on my first cardigan since I graduated college and that was looong time ago. Since it is worsted weight and I am using size 8 needles I am making fast progress. I already finished the back and working on the front.

Since I am on a roll with knitting, the next projects are Arian cardigan from ChicKnits and Dollar and Half Cardigan from Interweave Knits, Spring 2007. I already promised my sister Arian but I can see her checking $1.5 cardigan. Dear sister I will knit whichever you like or both for you!
