I finished it on Saturday wove ends on on Sunday and wore it a bit too. I am wearing it today as well. If I was not emotionally connected to the yarn, I may be to the top. It is so comfortable. Incredibly pleased with it.
Finishing on Saturday left me with a whole day to figure out what to knit next. With all the projects in my WIPs bin, this really ought not to need to ask this. However, the summer yarns bucket I pulled out, has one more yarn in it and it would be nice to knit it up.
The yarn
Is a 50/50 woll cotton blend and I already know how it performs. I made a top years ago with a griege green and it is one of the yarns in my first Tolsta tee. It's comfortable and the perfect yarn for between weather. Perfect for spring. It also wears like iron.
I had this in mind for Rebecca Clow's Lunan top or sweater. It will be a Lunan in the body, but the pattern has a double knit collar. I don't want to knit a double knit collar though I know it is a lovely finish. I am lazy. Or not. The body will be Rebecca's great fit with a different collar. I have now bought 3 different patterns for this sweater. I bought Lunan. I bought the Stripe Overload Cardi pattern by Mie Ferring and this morning, I bought Sari Nordlund's North Wind Polo. Somewhere that will help me get to the collar I want. I hope. Or I might just go with Sari Nordlunds pattern and call it good. I have no idea where I will end up or what I am making. I only know it will be fun and incredible to wear.
Today is a sewing day. Starting right now. I must. I am hoping to get the 2 already cut our pairs finished or mostly finished today. My what big eyes I have.
