Welp, the Pink Stuff sweater is about to be frogged and re-started. I'm not upset about it! This was the first try at a re-mathed pattern and it didn't work the way I wanted, so I've re-re-done the math and hopefully it results in a better fitting sweater this time.

I'm at the part of the sweater where there are over 400 stitches in a round (fingering weight, top-down raglan, about a dozen rounds before splitting off the sleeve stitches) and each round is taking foreeever :blobclipboard:
But it will be worth it!

The Calluna Pullover is done! Only took four months, somehow. Knit entirely by hand with 400g of sock yarn and US 2 (2.75 mm) needles.
Many more details on the knitblog, if you want them: https://www.knittingpirate.com/2026/09/14/in-which-the-pirate-finishes-the-calluna-sweater/

I spent far too much time today working out the numbers for my next sweater instead of finishing knitting the current sweater (only 41 rounds to go). But I was so *focused*!
Anyway, back to actual knitting now. Math can wait for next week.

100 rounds plus 25 for the cuff to go on one sleeve, 60 rounds plus the cuff on the other. I think I'm gonna manage it with under 400g yarn, thank goodness (I have a fifth skein, but it doesn't match in colour and it would be too noticeable even if I stripe it in).
The colourway is called "Football Season" which seems very fitting since football starts next week... even if it'll still be too warm here to wear a sweater!

@consumablejoy I use Ravelry (I'm one of the early adopters, haha) to keep track of projects, queue, and stash. I like how everything is linked together there, and being able to look at other people's work and notes. And I've sold a few patterns of my own through Rav, too :)

Woohoo, it's time for the annual #FinishOrFrogAlong :)
I'm working on a fingering-weight sweater and am up to the sleeves... if I knit 20 rounds a day I should have it done before the end of the month!
The yarn is hand-dyed on a standard superwash sock yarn base, the sweater pattern is Calluna Pullover, and I'm really enjoying working on it.

A conversation about knitting jokes in comic strips reminded me of this drawing I made of Husband and me.

Best machine-knitting advice I've got:
"Move slowly, because stitches are easily startled... if you startle the stitches, they'll jump and run away."

I'm glad to have friends who tell me about semi-sekrit yarn downsizing/destashing sales. This one had $5 cones...
Now, what am I going to make with such fine silk?
