Some of you asked to see a photo of my Stockholm Sweater. Here is how it looks so far…I will start the second sleeve tomorrow. I absolutely love the feel of angora and silk. The yarn is held double, which gives it more strength and warmth. It is also not so sheer this way. I found it easier to wind the yarn double before knitting with it.
I also learned to do German short rows recently. After practicing them on my latest pair of socks, I am pleased with the results. I knit a lot of socks, so it was an easy way to learn a new technique. I had the point of reference and understanding of the shape from doing so many wrap and turn heels.
What are doing creatively at home these days? Winter is such a cozy time. It is starting to become my favorite season. How about you?
