New Love

Last night, I reached the neck on the front of my current sweater and decided I was too tired to work the fiddly decisions required for a proper fit. But it was only 9:00 so I went stash diving and came up with this:

Oh yeah! This is more the stuff. Chuck the green chunky, bring on the teensy stitches, twisted edging and Canadian colors. I'm in love!!

Never mind that I'm suspicious I don't have enough yarn, and let's just ignore questions of fit. This is beautiful and I want to knit it all day long.

  1. What's not to love? I can't tell if it's socks or mittens, but I've been tempted to CO some stranded mittens lately (regardless of the fact that we have a slew of mittens around here already), so your project caught my eye. Love love LOVE those dusky, wintery colors.
