Behold a completed sleeve on my Linger Cardigan. I really like this thing. The fabric is thick and rather glorious. It is so cushy and cozy that I am looking forward to getting it done. I only wish I could knit on it for a week without stopping but that way leads to hand problems.
I picked the Linger up because I have not decided what to knit next. Its a conundrum. I thought that it would be a long sleeve variation of the Tolsta Tee but then I remembered that I had a bunch of dark grey Regal that I wanted to knit up in this before Christmas part of winter. The yarn for the Tolsta came out in the second stash dive of the fall. That dark grey is so gorgeous and a very simple very dark sweater is always a good wardrobe staple. It is the perfect kind of yarn for a Weekender. It has the right rustic look.
Only one problem. I don't really like the Weekenders reverse stockinette and I have just finished a drop shoulder sweater. Do I want another one right now? Granito perhaps? I am not really sure. Until I am particularly inspired by something or other, I am going to leave it alone.
That leaves me to wok on the WIPs bin. It's not a bad idea to wind up the year working from it. I won't be working on Linger today though. Though my hands have had a very good fall, working on it yesterday was enough. The heavy weight work is going to have to be done in bits and pieces. There are plenty of other things in the bin and I am just going to stick my hands in and see what comes up.
