A New Project


Vine Lace, Eco Wool DK

Hi all. Long time no blog. Long, long time, in fact. I've been knitting, but not nearly as much as when I blogged regularly -- so I thought maybe if I started blogging again, I would get some energy back into my knitting.

The picture is a swatch for a sweater I'm about to make. A co-worker had this fabulous sweater, and I am going to copy it. I had been looking for a pattern for some yarn I bought last summer (Sirdar Eco Wool DK), and I think I should have enough for this project. Even though its a DK weight, the sweater is going to be knit on US8s -- so that should stretch the yardage considerably.
