And may I present the lovely Karlsro to you, knit in Noro Silk Garden, color #82 which I call "crimson reds, pinks" but it also carries a little green.
I loved this project! An easy two-row lace pattern, on size 10s, started at one sleeve and cast off on the end of the other sleeve (with a few cast-ons and bind-offs in between of course). Not the easiest to pick up the stitches for the cute little edging, but that's okay.
The only drawbacks that I detect so far are: 1) no pockets; 2) not an easy take-on and -off kind of a cardigan. That's okay! That's why it's called a wrap -- you wrap yourself in it and leave it.
Highly recommended.
On to other news ... continuing on to my next Noro -addict creation:
KLARALUND in Silk Garden #74 ...
One sleeve (almost) finished, on size 9 bamboos. LOVE THIS PATTERN! I can't get my head around what an incredibly simple pattern this is, and how it looks so sophisticated! I want to make a Klaralund-stashbuster, with every worsted weight scrap that I own.
And ... Why didn't I do the st st part of this on circs? MAYBE NEXT TIME.
And last, but not least, that cute little acrylic baby raglan sweater ... just needs to be sewn up, and he'll be set to give away.
So, how can you tell that I'm an ADHD knitter?
I started another little kid sweater from my Baby Knits book. Here it is:
Sorry for the crummy photo.
I just realized that I have yet to blog about my master knitting program ... I'll have to do that later!
Happy knitting wherever you are -- and for some odd reason, if you're not a knitter but you're reading this blog, happy *** to you (fill in the blank)!
