Pomatomus socks

Finally finished these babies! A more complicated pattern than I'm used to in socks, but once I got into the flow of them they were actually quite nice to knit.

Jasseron Sweater

 Finished my Jasseron sweater a couple weeks ago. I wanted a sweater with a simple back and front but with patterned sleeves. I mulled over a many different options but this one was the closest I could find to what I wanted on Ravelry. I wasn't sold on the pattern at first because even though its a "raglan" it's knit in four separate pieces! (Not my fave, but hey it was a free pattern) I had to fanagle the sleeves and neck a bit in the sewing together process, but all in all not a bad finished sweater!

I used wool yarn from Briar Rose that I got at Maryland Sheep and Wool last year

Knitting

Winter is upon us and I find myself layering more and more. Colder weather means I just want to knit giant cowls ALL THE TIME. I finished the one above this past week and it is just as big and comfy as I hoped it would be. 

I also finished up my knee high cable socks made from hardy New Zealand yarn

Everything's betta' with a Sweata'

 Just finished knitting and blocking my Mama Vertebrae sweater. Super fast and easy knit. Used Malabrigo Rios which is 100% superwash merino and lovely to knit with.

 The sleeves blocked out a bit long for my taste, easily fixed by rolling the cuff.

Finished just in time for fall!

Color Affection Shawl

 Finally finished this shawl last week. Blocking it was a little tricky because I carried my yarn too tightly. I blocked the edge in a scallop pattern because of excess edging.

I think it came out rather nice, just in time for fall (please get here soon)
