Following Ginny's weekly yarn along over at Small Things...
Slow and steady is the theme for this current knit and reads. I had bought a good amount of Shelter last year for a long cardigan project but decided that it just wasn't the pattern I wanted to make with it. I had this Irish Coffee pattern in queue for a while and knew this is what I needed to do. Something very rhythmic and something with just a bit to think about. Luckily one of my current reads, Little Red in The City, is so wonderful at explaining sweater fit and form and hopefully my new knowledge on it will pay off. My other read is (still) Playful Learning and I really love it. I know I'll be implementing some of the fun learning opportunities this coming winter. I really felt encouraged while reading about organizing and materials and applications to daily life. It seems to be such an evolving organic process and I'm thrilled with some new ways to think about it.
Love the cables! And I really need to get a copy of Little Red in the City soon ;)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Little Red is fabulous, isn't it? Your sweater looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteYour sweater is so beautiful! I have never done cables before, but they are on my to learn list.
ReplyDeleteI need to check out Littel Red in the City, is it a knitting book? I'm off to find out. Have a wonderful day! xx
Ok, it is a knitting book and it just went in my cart. Thank you for the recommendation.
