  Is That all there is?

I have not had as much time for posting lately…but one thing is for sure, I am as much or more obsessed with knitting as I ever have been.
I absoutely LOVE it. It s a part of my heart & soul now. I can’t run away from it! Now let’s get down to business…

Finished Objects...

This is the stunning Shedir hat from Knitty.
I used Rowan Calmer in Black because that is what my DH wanted. I think it is very elegant in this color.
He said to me when I finished it…“Are you sure I sould wear this, it’s so fancy” I adore this pattern…so much so that I turned right around & made one for myself in Chocolate.

I knit mine with only 3 repeats of the pattern and it fits perfectly. LOVE it!!

Knits in Progress...

Oh my…it’s the beginning of Eunny’s amazing Bayerische socks.
I’m using Lang Jawoll in a very neutral oatmeal shade. This is definitely a tedious pattern (in a great way) using 2 US 0 Addi circulars (I love, love, love using 2 circs).
You are working a lot of cables (no cable needle of course) here…but I love it. Next up…

I saw this pattern on Craftster and I thought it was a very pretty fitted sweater.
I’m using Zara in a beautiful eggplant shade. It is a very simple but pretty pattern.

The River Stole from Rowan 38. Ahhhh…Kid Silk Haze…I needed my fix since someone took my Birch, I had to knit another shawl or stole to replace it (I miss you Birch :-( )
The color is Anthracite & it is a dark charcoal grey. Beautiful!!! We are entering the perfect seasons for me to wear a shawl.
I carry one with me whenever I go out to dinner. I just adore the feeling of the KSH on my shoulders when I’m wearing a sleeveless top. So light, so airy, soooo fabulous.

Last but not least...

I am now knitting the miles and miles of trim. I alterd the sleeves as they were going to be too big. They are perfect now.
I love this & can’t wait to finish her off. The true color is a slate grey.
