Checking in with my February "projects in progress." But first, last month's wins! I finished my xoxo sock. And decided not to make another one. The yarn isn't quite right and the pattern needs some tweaks but I am excited to keep playing with it later this spring. The sock on the left in the photo above is another version (knitted last summer) as I worked on this pattern. Hopefully I will be able to debut it this fall along with some other patterns that are shaking through my head right now.
Much more exciting though, I finished my Parker Cardigan and I LOVE IT. It's the first hand-knit I have made that I feel like is a throw on and go garment. Not too precious or likely to get stretched out. It's fun to have something I spent so much time on get so much wear.
And for February, still lots of knitting planned! My sewing machine will not be plugged in for awhile as we prepare to move but that's okay. Knitting keeps my hands going while I mentally make list after list of stuff we have to do to get out of one house and into another.
the harlowe pullover | I made a lot of progress on this in January but still have a sleeve to knit and a neckline to complete. Knitting this in Kelbourne Scout (their charcoal heather).
nighshift wrap by Andrea Mowry | after falling down the nightshift's hashtag on Instagram I had to cast on for this scarf pattern. I am using this lovely yarn from Homespun Hope to make a neutral version and am not quite halfway done.
purl soho boot socks | I want to use some of the yarn that I dyed last summer and I am going to use this pattern (which I have knitted through once before) to make another pair of socks. (Just one color, no heel or toe change.)
an ogden cami dress | still trying to track down the extra fabric for this dress!! my original plan was for this to be a tank top, but I cut it too short and so now I plan to add a skirt bottom. BUT my ikat fabric is currently sold out, so this is on hold until Stonemountain & Daughter (hopefully!) restocks. (Here it is in blue.)
