Sew Wrong

I need more sunshine

Somewhat Cowl – Detail, originally uploaded by sewwrong.

Well, I tried to take some photos of my finished Somewhat Cowl. This was the only somewhat ok photo that I got out of about a dozen (then my battery died). If we didn’t have thunderstorms and big clouds rolling through all day, the lighting probably wouldn’t have been an issue. I guess I’ll have to try again tomorrow to get some better shots.

I got the yarn for my Pink-ina this week and started working on it last night. The lace is slow going, but it’s easy to memorize. The color, Cheeky, is absolutely a joy to work with and a nice change than having to stare at black all the time.

Pink-ina Yarn

I’ll probably have a photo of the lace after the weekend is over. And hopefully, some final sweater photos of the Somewhat Cowl.

Almost there!, originally uploaded by sewwrong.

The end is in sight with this woolly black monster! Due to some extensive car trips (about 20 hours total), I’ve finally made some headway and am now onto the cowl, which has about two more inches to go. And it’s just as well, since the weather is getting warmer and a cashmere/wool blend sweater covering one’s lap is not an ideal situation. It fits so nicely though! This might just be the first knitted sweater that I’ve made that will be acceptable for work wear. It better be, that’s why I’m kntting it in black!

Up next on the knitting agenda: Orangina in pink, or as I like to call it, “Pink-ina.” The yarn should be arriving tomorrow from Hampton Knitting Yarns, so more pictures to follow.
