Knitting Work

It's a sunny morning today and yet far from spring.  There is usually a point in March where I feel winters back is broken and spring is here but this year?  Not yet.  It remains winter.  Maybe next week?  

I didn't do a lot of knitting yesterday.  I got nicely deep into the green part of the Kauni.  


It isn't going to show much here but I am halfway through this set of 10 rows.  

The other thing I wanted to show was this.



I wanted the center of the neck ribbing to be at the back of my neck but I wanted the beginning of the rounds to be at the raglan increase part.  You can see the ends yarn marking those.  I don't do it often but on the garter stitch neck band it seemed like the right thing to do to minimize the slight differences in the way garter stitch looks where the rounds meet.  

I am wearing my Lusk sweater this morning and am reminded again how much I like the fit of this sweater by Rebecca Clow.  It also reminds me how much I want to knit another.  I think there will be at least one summer knit in this pattern and I want to make a blend of Ysoda Teague's Anyday sweater and Lusk for a yarn in one of my project ready bags.

I hope for a bit more knitting today.  I also hope the dishes do themselves and that the floor sweeps itself so...oh well.   To work.  If all work were knitting work how lovely it would be.
