It’s so nice to be back to knitting on Gramps. It’s knit potion, for sure. I didn’t realize I was missing sweater knitting until I dove back in and suddenly a whole collection of tense spots relaxed.
During the Gramps hiatus, I’d convinced myself that the contrasting color I’d chosen wasn’t going to work. I’ve been a little iffy about the main colorway from the beginning, and I started thinking that adding the neutral for the contrasting color would just make the whole thing impossibly chaotic. But I was wrong! Don’t you think? I really like how the bottom ribbing section turned out. Now I can hardly wait to get the sleeves done so I can return to the contrasting color for the button band and shawl collar. That will tell the real story.
Saturday was Fiber Guild, and I had the sweetest helper ever.
It was a great time, as always, with the added excitement that one of our newer guild members started learning to knit! Can you imagine? I wanted to have a mind meld and beam into her brain all the wonders that await her.
Everyone wanted to get in on the fun.
I took this marinated cauliflower salad for lunch. Yum!
Tomorrow is Super Tuesday here in the U.S. Heaven help us.
That salad looks awesome!
It was pretty good, but it would have been better if you’d been there to have some. Missed you.
