What are you knitting?

[runner5]

I ordered some sock yarn from England - WYS in the colorway Robin. I love the way it is knitting up.

Meanwhile my youngest grandson asked where his are and I'm trying to finish DH's sweater vest in shetland wool.

What are you knitting? I have an FO I need to post in the other thread but need to get pictures.

I am knitting the Snow zone hat in the test knit area.



I am also knitting some of the Wool and the Gang leopard print socks. I am not exactly following the pattern - I really didn’t want to do the afterthought heel, but - I think they are turning out just fine:



I also have an advent scarf I will finish someday. Maybe by next Christmas. Lol

I'm working on a Beren shawl:

The yarn is an odd collection of handspun. The white is silk hankies, the black is a wool/alpaca blend, and the purple is spun from dyed KP Gloss wool/silk top. The unblocked shape of the shawl is a bit weird, but there's enough stretch that it should come out okay.

Thanks for sharing. I love, love what you are both doing. Char what yarn are you using for the hat? Heather - I love your yarn and was glad you described it (but a little sad that I can't run out and buy it!)

I'm determined to knit the yarn I have before buying more but I'm not really inspired by most of it. Must KNIT!!

The hat is Brava Sport. The dark is “camel”, then white and cream. It is very soft yarn. I am also making a blanket with it. Guess I should post a pic here! Lol

[Char]

So - what is in your stash you are trying to be inspired by? Maybe we can help!

[Char]

Here is the blanket I am making with brava sport. This is the jewel version of the hue shift afghan. I totally intend to make it someday.... lol

[Char]

Oops - this isn’t knitting though. Guess I can still post here.

I like the colors, is that self striping or are you switching colors?

[Char]

Rose the Rebel I am switching colors. it is Brava Sport from Knit picks - the Hue Shift Jewel colors.

[runner5]

Of course you can!

I have been working on a sweater from Rosemary Drysdale's Enterlac. It's really more of a shawl with the sides sewn up. I made socks to match it first so now I'm committed, hahaha! Anyway, this is what I have so far

[Char]

beautiful! What are the yarn details?

[Rose the Rebel]

Thank you😁 The yarn is Premier Serenity Sock in the color dark water. I really like the softness and it's way more economical than the suggested yarn for the sweater. It seems like it will take forever to finish but I hope to have it done in time for spring 🌷

I look forward to seeing progress pictures!!
