Hope you all had a lovely weekend. Ours was quiet, yet productive. We had dinner at my sister's house on Friday night and that was as much of the outside world that I saw this weekend. I caught up on so many movies that I had wanted to watch while making progress on my wips. I also got my hair done.

My featherweight cardigan ended up being re-started. The pinks altogether were just too much. I just knew that I wouldn't wear the finished cardigan so I ripped it and re-started adding grey into the mix. I really like how it is knitting up now. Although the pinks are all fancy sock yarns, wollmeise, yarnaddict and knitting goddess the grey is Stylecraft Life 4ply. I use a lot of Stylecraft yarn but I have never tried this one. The verdict is it's the softest yarn I have worked with in a while and much softer than the sock yarns. It is almost like knitting with alpaca. It can be a little splitty, but that is a minor irritation.
I made a little progress on my Tinder cardigan too, but the featherweight took preference over the weekend.
I went to my sister's house for coffee today and we had a little chat about businesses we would like to open. I can't say much, but I am super excited about our idea. It will take an enormous amount of work and more than a little luck, but if we pull it off it will be a dream come true.
Until next time ...
I LOVE the hairstyle!!!! I think you should keep it like that!! Hee Hee! Cx
ReplyDeleteLOL - I will meet you at the coffee shop with my hair like this, see if you like it so much then :D
ReplyDeleteLoving the hair style! Maybe you'll start a new trend!! Your cardigan is looking good too ~ do you think that you could use the Stylecraft 4 ply to knit socks? I'm just about to start my first ever pair :O)x
ReplyDeleteJackie I have seen a few pairs knit in Stylecraft Life 4ply on Ravelry so I don't see why not :)
