A brand new cast on: Darling Emma in #malabrigo #yarn (Velvet Grapes). So in love with mindless #laceknitting right now! . #darlingemma #handknitsweater #knittingaddict #knitallthesweaters #sweaterproject #sweater #knitting #newcastonsmakeeverythingbetter

Found a #lopi #pattern book at a thrift store yesterday ... so now this is happening. . #sweaterproject #sweater #icelandicsweater #knittingproject #knitting #knitallthesweaters #colorwork #strandedknitting

The #albatross of #sweater #knitting is finally an #fo !! This is my #brookings sweater, #knit in #cascade and is stretchier than I expected, though this is not a problem. The finished sweater resembles the actual pattern in cables only because I had to modify all of the instructions for my size. . #cabledsweater #sweaterproject #knittingnightmare #sweaterfo #summerknittingproject

Progress. 30 minutes every morning should get me a new sweater (and pattern) in another week or so. 🤗🤗🤗 ____________________________ The yarn is my Bellbottoms colorway on the Traveler base.

For perspective on my last post about this Elton cardigan. On the left is the point where the pattern says to join for the underarm. On the right is where I will biologically need to join for the underarm. Even with heavy blocking, there’d absolutely be no way I could put an arm through the sleeve of the original directions. Although it may have some effect on the way the drop-down shoulder lays over my bicep, at least this way my bicep will fit through the armhole. 😜 . #eltoncardigan #sweaterproblems #sweaterproject #mohair #knittingpatternproblems https://www.instagram.com/p/B_2OSi9JbM5/?igshid=4103s93qwzfc

Ok. So after deciding against the blue multi yarn, I ripped this #eltoncardigan back and started again. Because I have narrow shoulders, I went down a pattern size ... and it literally tells me that after knitting 4.75 inches from the shoulder “seam”, downward, I should join all pieces and work in the round. I don’t know about you, but there’s no freakin’ way an adult woman with boobs can fit into a sweater with a 4.75” armhole. This sweater’s SUPER odd construction and unrealistic instructions is quickly wearing the shine off my desire to knit it. #notimpressed . #sweaternightmare #knittingnightmare #sweaterproject #cardiganpattern #knittingwithmohair https://www.instagram.com/p/B_1AzXPpiYI/?igshid=1smivtp715pys
