After February, when I didn’t allow myself new cast ons, in an attempt to finish a few WIPs, the pendulum is now swinging the other way. There are many new cast ons (and not much finishing!)
Of course, a new sweater. It’s a hoodie with a cable & lace pattern up the back. It’s on size 13 needles and I’m following a pattern, so it barely counts!
The yarn is Imperial Yarn’s Bulky 2-Ply Pencil Roving! I love it. And it’s green, yes, very excited for this one! It’s going quickly too!
And then this arrived in the mail…
It came as kit with yarn to make Yoda and a Stormtrooper. Needless to say, I’ve got half a Yoda at the moment. Turns out, he’s got a lot of pieces! And his ears really define him. Right now, it looks like a weird little toad. Fear not…be here soon, Yoda will!
This is another project with amazing yarn. I’ve been eyeballing it for a long time! It’s finally on the needles…whoooo-hoo!
This is yarn my Mom dyed for me. They aren’t my usual colors but it’s just gorgeous. I really love it so far. I also appreciate getting free advice from my knitting. I often need to get my shit together. It’s a good reminder :)
This is the old WIP that’s getting love this week.
While the northeast is dealing with a blizzard, it’s been nearly 80 degrees and sunny in San Francisco. While, I normally hate that, it was such a wet winter, even I’ve been able to enjoy a bit of sun. Thank you Daylight Savings Time!
It seems like very little progress is being made but in reality, I have several large shawls nearly completion! I’ll just keep plugging away…I’ll get there eventually or at least run out of needles to cast on with. :)
That sounds like fun :) Maybe when I finish everything here I’ll have a session of cast-on-itus

It’s from a 2012 KnitScene, a pattern by Carol Feller called the Bridget Hoodie. There will definitely be more posts about it!
