Here is a progress photo of my Dragonflies sweater.
It's taking forever because I'm really slow at lace. Also long torso is long, so I think I've completed just over half of the body. Since I still can't manage the lace while out talking to people, (though it is getting easier), I started on one of the sleeves during knitting group. Judging from how the upper arm fits now, I think I will decrease more quickly for a while for a snugger fit.
In other news, summer arrived in Scotland, and though it has cooled down again a bit, it's still rather pleasant outside. I'm enjoying open windows and leaving the house without a cardigan.
Also, in case anyone wondered whatever happened to my Stash Match project, just wanted to say I'm still working on it. My indecision is my worst enemy, plus I may or may not have increased my stash since blog week, which means more skeins to allocate. Oh dear. It'll get there!

This is beautiful. I can't do lace while talking to people either, but yours is definitely looking great!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sweater! I love it :)
ReplyDeleteWow! I love that color. So far every link I've visited has been about sweaters! We must be getting sick of no-sweater-weather!
ReplyDeleteThat is just a beautiful sweater. You can really see the dragonflies.
ReplyDeleteI can't talk and knit lace either!
That's fantastic - the lace detail is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow. What a project! Love how you live in Scotland. My daughter's piano teacher is from there and she is fabulous and cute with the lilt in her voice.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I have no cute accent. Generic Canadian accent here!
