I seem to want to start all the things this spring. Tonight I finally sat down to figure out how to get started on my Clint shawl, which has been #1 in my queue since I wound yarn for it a month ago. Somehow that green and pink sweater jumped the line :)
It does require some attention, at least for now until I kind of internalize how it works, and the pattern is complicated enough that I just printed it out and tucked it into the handy outer pocket on my project bag. Having e-patterns is nice, but sometimes I don’t want to keep refreshing my phone screen or worrying if my iPad is going to run out of battery. Let’s enjoy some analog in life, eh? I can tell this is going to be potato chip knitting now that I’ve gotten going and I can’t wait to see the quilt block grow. I have three of my four colors knit into it so far and I can say that I’m really pleased with the palette. Adding the pop of fuschia is going to make it even better.
I now have five things going in the yarny world, so I think I’ll cool it on the cast ons until I finish something. I do have a lot of projects planned with some more very pretty yarn crawl yarn, so I’m motivated. Plus I think all of them are going to be great and I’m looking forward to being able to have the finished objects. Onward!
