*I cast off on the Honeymoon Cami last week and it fits wonderfully. Hopefully I’ll get some pictures up soon. Next I have my eye on the Ballet Camisole to use with the black Luna I have ready and waiting. The yarn has a nice sheen to it and, hey, it’s machine washable to boot!
*So, naturally I had to cast something ON, to fill the void left by the Honeymoon Cami…I’ve got 8-and-a-bit balls of Quechua leftover from a sweater, and that’s just enough for the KnitPicks Feather-and-Fan stole. It’s a rectangle shawl, essentially, using a repeating feather-and-fan stitch. I’m enjoying it so far, it seems nicely repetitive and will be a good way to use up the yarn. They have a similar idea for chunkier, fuzzier yarn for a blanket feather-and-fan pattern – I’m thinking this will be an opportunity to finally put to rest some of the Divine that’s been languishing in my stash for too long.
*The Ravenclaw cardi has come to a bit of a standstill. I’m still in need of 1 ball (really, 1 ball would be enough) of Highland Wool in Light Grey Heather, and have been waiting for months for Elann to refill that colour…still nothing. So, the cardi has 2 sleeves, 2 front pieces, and enough navy blue for the back piece, but until I get more of the contrast colour, sadly it will have to wait. Fortunately, my sister does have enough yarn in Griffyndor colours for me to knit one for her
All in good time…
