YOP – year 8 – week 31

This past week I’ve finished off my Coloring cardigan by Katrin Schneider. It has been blocked! I know I can hardly believe I’ve gotten to that part already myself. It just needs the buttons sewing on. I’m a couple of buttons short, mainly because I added a couple more buttonholes when I was knitting the button band. Finished pictures should be ready next week.

When I was finished the colouring I did indeed switch my attention to the Rosebud Socks by Wendy D. Johnson. I cast on and then promptly lay aside to work exclusively on the Coloring. I worked from where I left the first sock, which was far as the gusset increases and this week I’ve worked on nothing else but these Rosebud socks and they are now complete. These are my first pair of socks towards my box of socks for this year.

With no other projects on my needles I’m going to cast on the Aster cardigan by Marie Amelie Designs later today in some Eden Cottage Millburn 4 ply yarn. I have a sweaters worth in the Night Sky colourway and I think the Aster will look great in this colour. The colour is also going to be a great piece in my wardrobe, navy is a great neutral type of colour for me.

So the list is now looking like this;
