I found it a bit too much for my hands to work on the Linger sweater and though I spent a whole day trying to sort out the next step on the top I am working on (setting up for sleeves and hip line increases), the math defeated me. I cannot count. Math? My nemesis. I will defeat it but I needed something as a balm for my wounded ego.
The balm for that wound needed to be something bright a shiny and lovely. Luckily I have just the thing on my needles.
This brilliant yellow made me feel so much better.
The yarns are from Arcane Fibre Works , an Alberta dyer with the most brilliant multi colours on the market and semi solids that compare in sheer vibrancy. The two I have here are Sun Yellow and Prairie Storm. I think. I am not going to double check because they have tons of multi colours but I urge you to check them out.
The pattern is by a Danish knitter and writer who is no longer selling the pattern. I had it in my deep computer stash because I knit one a good long time ago. It was one of my favourite things to wear and I am looking forward to having it in my wardrobe again. I love those little pops of colour between the brilliant semi solid yellow.
I have a bunch of things to do today and with the late start on all the things, it is time to get a move on it. More knitting? You bet.
