  1. #WIPWednesday #knitting

    1/3 of the body finished. It's getting a bit boring to knit, although it really looks beautiful.

    Fingering weight yarn, so it takes forever. I also think it might be too big... although that might be nice, and I can easily make it smaller by adding a side seam at the end.

    So, on we go.

  2. Finally decided on the fifth colour in this #testknit #WoolweftSweater for designer @s.knits
    The original pattern calls for four colours, so had to go stash diving when I decided I want to make the body longer - as I'm tall and not small in general, even tall for Dutch standards 😉

    Onwards for the last bit before the ribbing :)
    And then some sleeves to knit...

  3. Finished the body.
    Yoke 1 week
    Body 2 weeks
    Let's see how many months the sleeves are going to take me... I might try knitting them both at once to speed things up.

  4. So, I managed to finish this shirt in 3 weeks (of which one week on holiday and hardly knitting anything...)

    Very happy with the colour, marling the anthracite and the dark red is beautiful I think.

    I like the 'butterfly' sleeves as the pattern calls them.

    And the shirt fits, I was worried my head wouldn't fit through, but it does. Too short still, but will block it (tomorrow??) and probably will grow quite a bit. Hopefully, that is.

  5. In the final stretch of a test knit I started in December. This is the first time I have knit a jumper where you pick up and knit the arms from the steeks.
