Presenting my friend D, who just finished a fantabulous all-in-one-piece garter stitch sweater (with attached i-cord trim, yum), in Naturally Vero (I think it is a Fiber Trends pattern?):
She wore it this weekend on our White Easter, and said that even though she was ready to throw it out the window of a moving car (or something like that) after all the yarn-eating garter stitch, she loves the result. I would too, quite frankly, particularly with the awesome brooch to go with it.
The Easter Bunny brought chocolate, as well as something else. I am now in possession of my very own ball-winder, yipee! It is already providing me with singular glee…
I can tell that there is a certain skill to the winding, though. The first ones turned out way too loose and I think the last ones were too tight. I wound my earmarked-for-Clessidra 4 balls of Knit Picks Gloss (this means I am actually inching closer to starting them, even though I haven’t actually cast on), and 2 skeins of Lorna’s Laces earmarked for the Endpaper Mitts.
Tonight I have a date with some chocolate, and with the comfy couch.
