Admiral

Another stash edition. A gorgeous navy blue. I've been wanting a navy blue for a while and was thrilled when it turned up during a Wollmeise update.

Looky looky. Another fun little package at my doorstep. This Tosh Sport seems so much softer than the stuff I made my Audrey In Unst out of. Weird. But I'm glad :)

Knit Counter app


Knit Counter app, originally uploaded by stitch-by-stitch.

How cool is this? It is a knit counter that you can change to whatever you need. In the case of Color Affection, in the first section, I needed the row counter 1-4 then back to 1 again. Then the repeat should increment every row 4 up to a max of 13. I know then that I should be ready to introduce the flouro yellow! A quick count of the stitches confirmed I had the right number :)

And here is my Akoya finished and with the buttons sewn on. So what if one of them fell off when trying on for pics. What's it to ya? Ha ha ha.

Idlewood finished

Check it out! A jumper in one week. A record for me. With a 15" cowl, I think it counts even if it doesn't have sleeves. I'm wearing it straight off the needles after ends woven in. I haven't even blocked it. Not sure if I'll bother to be honest.

Peony Pink

Sadly my Sexy Vesty has died a sad and tragic death. It shrunk/felted in the wash. Rookie mistake I won't be making again. So I thought I'd make another in a lovely fresh shade of pink. Stay tuned.

I'm loving this shade of mustard at the moment. So when I saw them both go up for destash, I couldn't decide between them so I got them both. There is not much difference between them and they are gorgeous!
