I still have a deadline on one, but it is about 3/4 done the knitting, and only needs seaming and an outer edging till it is done. Lots of time. But still. Done with it for now.
I went to the wool room, which is as big as the small bathroom - I measured - and therefore deserving of the name, and stood there. And smiled. I have a wool room. It is well lit and cozy warm in there and just has an ambiance that, well tickles my fancy.
I looked through the big box of WIPS and chose one. I debated about starting something new, but it was nearer 4 a.m. and even I know that the middle of the night is not when to choose a new project.
This is a sweater I decided to renovate. I had initially finished it with a shawl collar, that while nice and cozy warm, swamped me. It was too short as well and with 3 balls of yarn left from the project, I am taking the opportunity to make it longer as well as putting on a simple plain ribbed button band. I'm thinking of making the sleeves a little longer too, but the length of the sweater is more important than longer sleeves. This is what I am working on today.
The offices I work in are chilly and I am really looking forward to wearing all my sweaters. And knitting new ones.
Fancy fully tickled. Knitting underway.
