Blue Moon nooz!


Did you wonder how my Blue Moon sweater was going? I can't imagine you did, but for the sake of ongoing knitting content -- and because it's SO GORGEOUS -- here's where I'm at. This picture is quite color accurate -- the colorway is Gypsum, and the yarn is Luscious Silk, a recent addition to the line at Blue Moon! [I get very excited when my favorite yarn companies start adding Amy-friendly yarns to their lines, as you can tell.]


Sadly for me, I didn't start knitting from two different skeins until, well, you can see where I did, and that's just life. It'll make the right front look like an, um, art piece. Yeah, that's just what I meant to do! [snork.] The pattern is Kristi Porter's Sonnet, transfigured into lace to make the yarn I have go further, and because silk is warmer than wool, so solid silk would be steamy to wear! Toes included in the shot for scale.

I'm halfway [or more] through the back and progress is quite speedy. I keep getting motivated to get to the solid-knit row pair in the super-simple lace repeat, which keeps moving me forward.

Speaking of all things Blue Moon, have you heard about this? It's going to be so insanely cool. Sounds like a cannot-miss event of a lifetime! I wanna go.

I'm sure your Sonnet will be gorgeous when it's all done - I think it's lovely now. Symmetry is overrated!

My LYS has ordered me two skeins of Amy's Vintage Office. What a lovely scarf that will make to jazz up my grey tweed coat!
 
GAH! I so want to go to this! How exciting!
 
i wonder about the size of your needle. where did you get it? dose the knitting community provide it
 
I usually don't like verigated yarns, but your Sonnet is looking lovely! I think turning that grain by ninety degrees works wonders.

PS: It seems Webs sold out of Amy's Vintage Office in mere seconds! Congrats (it's very pretty, even to a non-verigated girl such as myself)!
