Warm Glowing Satsfaction

I got started on Cassie's sweater sleeve and oh my, it is looking good.

I am showing a picture of the back of the arm and shoulder so you can see how the Lusk sweater body's shoulder looks.  I added one detail from the Cloud sweater. The garter stitch round at  the pickup is such a clean crisp detail.  It stops any wibbliness on the pickup row from showing.  I will use this again.  

Being in the middle of a sleeve with only a few decreases to do, means there is lots of time for thinking about the next project.  I know I already talked about doing a Kauni striped sweater next but when I say the next project, I don't mean THE next project.  I mean A next project.  There are always tons of next projects but  whatever is really next ends up being the whim of the day.  Thinking of a NEXT  project really is about thinking about stash and what my wardrobe needs and wants and playing with yarn in my mind while my hands are also playing with yarn.   

I do have a wee bit of yarn searching to do.  I have been thinking about the blue sweater and adding those tiny pockets.  The colours of them are very important to me.  Thinking of the colours is high in my mind.  At the moment, I am thinking of using some lace weight, simply because of the colours.  I need to look hard at what else I have and will the colours work with my particular blue.  

So a bit of digging in the yarn is going to happen and a bit of cleaning and general tidying up too but knitting will also happen.  That fills me with a warn glow of satisfaction and who can ask for more than that.
