  1. #StashDiveSaturday This lovely yarn is 100% silk Precious 4 Ply from The Natural Dye Studio, which closed its doors in 2015. Perhaps time to actually knit something with it! 😅

  2. After blocking, I had some gauge issues with my (air dried) sweater. So, I re-wet it, and gave it a trip in the dryer. The fit is now much better in the shoulders!

  3. Here a picture of me wearing my (unblocked) sweater. I’m a tad larger than the mannequin, so I really hope that with some washing the fabric will shorten and widen a bit. That’s what the swatch did, and the numbers in the pattern are based on 😃

  4. This other sleeve now also has some more length. Looking at it, I'm wondering if I should introduce some tapering from round 60 onward, before doing the big decrease just before the cuffs. What do you think? 🤔

  5. As you can see in this picture, the short row part of the second sleeve of Kanarie is now also done. So now it's a matter of knitting in the round until both sleeves are of sufficient length to start the cuffs! 😃

  6. I've also started the short rows on the other armhole. I figured it would be best to get those out of the way before I get started on the length of those sleeves! 😄

  7. My grading spreadsheet has been reworked, and I worked out the correct numbers for the stitches to be picked up, the puff sleeve increases, and the short rows for Kanarie 😃

  8. Calling all those who signed up for the Baa Baa Brighouse Book Club - it's time for the big reveal!

    Introducing 'Great Expectations', a 100g skein of hand dyed 100% British Bluefaced Leicester 4 ply high twist yarn. There are two skeins in each box.

    Included in the box is a copy of the Penguin Clothbound Classic edition of the book and a tin of Victorian style tea.

    Boxes are already on their way. Happy knitting!
