Another languishing WIP finished! It feels really great to be cleaning out my knitting basket.
This little sweater, my Blank Canvas Baby Sweater pattern (free!) knit up in leftover bits of sock yarn in only the prettiest, watercolour tones, turned out exactly how I'd dreamed it would. I'm completely crazy about it. I'm really glad that I waited for that extra little bit of purple to be leftover after my last Clara dress to knit the sleeves. I think they needed the light pinky-purple, otherwise it would have been too much blue.
These blue-green-purple shades are totally me, I wish I had this exact sweater in my size!

I will have to try this one, I have some sock yarn left over - a perfect excuse to de-stash!
ReplyDeleteLove it. So many beautiful colours.

ReplyDeleteI was interested to hear about your knitting basket. Have you ever blogged about it before? I personally would love to see a post about that! I'm interested in these kinds of small things about knitting. I like learning what people carry their projects in, what kinds of needles they use, etc. My knitting basket is an old hand-tooled brass coal bucket of my grandfather's (never used to hold coal). You can tell it's hand-tooled by the grooving on the brass.
Very cool and awesome thing you shared here.
ReplyDeleteSo adorable! I love the colors you used!
