Bright

The last colour section is complete.  Or rather I think the last colour section is complete.  

I could do a couple more but I like the scale of this now.  You can get too much of a good thing and these bits are a very good thing.  I will need some increases and I'm going to keep doing them in the round at a similar rate to what the pattern is built with in yellow stockinette.  

Bright yellow knitting is perfect for today.  The sun is out and it feels like spring is coming in.

Always Something to Think About

I stayed strong and finished the finishing. 

My third Tolsta is done and I am wearing it.  Yea me.  I didn't knit a stitch on my new WIP bin fascination, my yellow sweater till after the Tolsta was complete. It is never difficult but it is fussy.  That 'fussy' is why I always knit my sweaters with as little seaming as possible.  

My head is deep into the yellow sweater.  When last you saw it, it looked like this.

The yarn is Arcane Fibre Works Merino Nylon DK in the Prairie Storm and Sun Yellow.  

The combination is just perfect knitting for this part of the year where our hearts cry for spring but the weather refuses to comply.  I felt so happy after working on this for a couple hours.  

I am still working the interesting yoke and have made it to where I had to change my needles to a longer one.  

I took the time to spread it out and I am really glad I did.  I had skipped a row in the last colour section.  It has been ripped back and repaired now and I am going forward.

I am not happy with the way that neck trim is looking and may have to sort it out later.  I won't really know that until I have the rest of the sweater finished and ready to try on.  

I have a couple more sections of the colour bits to knit before the yoke is done, but I will need a set of increases after that is done.  Depending on the depth of the yoke, I might finish with raglan style increases.  There is always something to think about when you knit.
