Moving on

I am here to tell you that I finally (finally!) figured out my knitting errors on the shawl. And it was all me not paying attention. I just didn’t have the bandwidth for a chart, I guess. That’s ok. I now know what I was doing wrong and I have righted my ways.

That’s to say….I bundled it up in a project bag and set it aside. My attention span seems to be be sparse and I really needed something that didn’t take too much thinking. I cast on the Felix cardigan, using yarn that I had in my stash. It’s all stockinette stitch after the raglan increases. Just my speed - I’m trucking right along. If all goes as planned, I’ll be knitting a sleeve this weekend.

I have also determined that I need more cardigans in my wardrobe. I think I have been avoiding knitting them because I don’t love purling. It takes me about 3x as long to purl one row as it does to knit it. Still, I like wearing cardigans so I am going to embrace the challenge and see if I can add a few to my wardrobe this fall and winter.

Stay tuned.
