#shortrowcolourwork — Public Fediverse posts

I haven't shared any knitting for a while, partly because the last big project I did I wasn't completely happy with technically.

But this was fun and challenging. I wanted to replace the short row colourwork section of a mitt pattern I had with a different motif - only problem was they weren't the same size. So I smooshed (yes, that's the technical term) two designs together. Which turned out to be harder than I anticipated. It involved spreadsheet calculations and multiple drafts but I'm happy with the result.

The mitt pattern is Short Wave Mitts by Sybil R. (https://knitting-and-so-on.blogspot.com/2012/10/short-wave-mitts.html)

The two motifs are Anemones and Buddlings from Woolly Wormhead's book Short Row Colourwork.

The yarn is gorgeous New Zealand wool and possum
