Hey I am allowed to share progress shots for my test knit so hurray! Yarn arrived Monday and Tuesday I swatched, Wednesday I cast on, finished the ribbing as I was off work then ripped since I was under 100 stitches, Thursday I cast on again and ribbed, ribbed, ribbed. Friday night {about 11 pm} I ripped again since I was over in my stitch count and yesterday, Saturday, I cast on again and forced myself into another late night to just hit the color work part.
I have been ribbing for dayyyyyys. Days.
I did finish one item from the box and shared it with the group on Ravelry instead of posting here. I also added the yarns for Calypso Crop to box list since it is precariously plopped upon the box. You can see my color choices on Wednesday’s post since I did blog about having to rippity, rippity, rip.
THIS YARN ROCKS. I have frogged it, tinked it, reknit it multiple times now and it holds up like a champ. Also it is a total delight to work with. I honestly only mind the days of ribbing because I wanted to hit color work and see if my choices worked together. I just now ordered a ball of two more colors in case it doesn’t–the shop I ordered from did not have black or dark gray and adding those colors to mix is safe since they are neutrals. Onto my color work so as always…
