I made some progress on my secondary project, the #pinassasweater and also found some sunshine to take a picture of the #ingesweater 🧶!

Sounds also very doable! No more than two colours per row? Then you should be golden with that cowl!
You could swatch or just start with one of the Shetland Woolweek Hats and see it as a big swatch. That way you’ll get a product out of your swatch and see how the colour blending works. And if it isn’t that pretty, well you can always rip it back and start over!
Colourwork really isn’t that hard and a cowl is the perfect fort project! You just have to figure out which way of holding your yarns and catching you floats is your preferred method. Do you knit continental or do you throw? There are even online courses you could try!
I love her colour palette, this picture matches the reality pretty well, it’s a soft cool sage green, love it!
Happy #fairislefriday y‘all!
I started a new project today, the #pinassasweater by Elena Solier Jansá with her Xolla Pastoreta yarn!

🧶I’ve blocked the #ingesweater before finishing the first sleeve to see how much the yarn will grow after blocking. Just love the blooming of Holst Supersoft. Sorry my blocking mats are neon green 😬

Thank you, that is very helpful to me, that just confirms my feeling that I just don’t like this yarn! Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔
Maybe Rauma Strikkegarn would be a good Alternative and I really love that yarn.
Danke, thank you! It seems I have caught a light pneumonia, very regency, very 19th century from me! I really want to be withering away, sitting at the sea side in England. I managed 3/4 of my sleeve today!
Since it‘s too dark to give you a Live Photo: I am wearing my Agatha socks right, designed by @thewoollythistle.bsky.social Corinne in Daughter of a Shepherd Drover yarn, which I used for a lot of socks and it’s one of my absolute favourite pairs. 🧶

I don’t like alpaca because of it‘s stretchy feeling, I should’ve listened to my gut there. But I already had the Clay in stash, so I just bought the CC. It you’re right, maybe I’ll do another swatch and go down on the needle size to see if I like it better then!
Should I order something else m, eg British Breeds, J&S, JC Rennie or just knit it?! 🧶 I am not sure …
I cant decide what to do, I want to knit „Amaryllis“, the cover garment of springtime and ordered Rowan Felted Tweed. But I am not the happiest about the yarn, the alpaca makes it a little bit too stretchy for me. ⬇️

I am on sick leave right now and while I am getting better I started to knit the sleeves on the #ingesweater 🧶

Hello Bluesky!
Ever so slowly I’m making the move over here. I’m a knitter based in Vienna, Austria. If not knitting I love to run and bike, hike , basically a knitting granola she/her.
