We are obsessed

We have a few more finished projects for our Joji KAL.

Susan finished Slow Curves in a mixture of Singles. The colours turned out beautiful.

Trina knit Spector in tosh dandelion. I really like how Trina's colours fade. The yoke of this sweater is interesting. I hope Trina will wear it into the store so that we can get a picture of the sweater on her.

Lynn and I have been on a mission. More yarn was hung today. It's become a bit of an obsession for us.

Now I have another job for us on Tuesday - we need to rearrange the Dyed in the Wool by colour.

I showed this wall but it has been rearranged to add a finished shawl. The pattern is Butterfly and we used Uneek Fingering with Hedgehog Sock.

We've been making kits for the Knitters' Fair as well. We aren't wearing our Throwbacks but they will be hanging and we've made up some interesting colour combinations.

Sign ups start September 1.

This year the shawl will be knit with two colours. That makes choosing a lot easier.

Yarn: Fingering weight

Yardage: MC (main color) - 2 skeins of wool (399yds / 365m) 
CC (contrast color) - 2 skeins of wool (399yds / 365m)

Needles: US 5 / 3.75mm circular in 40” / 100cm length or size needed to obtain gauge.

Gauge: 22 sts & 48 rows = 4” / 10cm in garter stitch (un-blocked). Try to get close to the recommended stitch gauge to ensure you don’t run out of yarn. 

I haven't knit in a few days so I need to say goodnight and move to the knitting chair.
