It was *almost* too chilly to wear this today, but it was fresh off the blocking mats and I couldn’t resist because I love it ! It’s my Willa by @this.bird.knits knit in BC Garn Bio Balance from @northern_yarn which I’ve been working on as part of Kate’s lovely lace yoke-along. It’s swingy and light and super comfy to wear 💕
I’ve been feeling really excited for @jenacknitwear ‘s #UseEveryScrapKAL which kicks off next week, but also promised myself I *would not* cast on any more socks until I finished at least one of my, ahem, historic 🧦 WIPs. So I’m now happily knitting away on these beauties that I cast on (mumbles) four years ago and stopped working on for no good reason. The summer tee I’ve been knitting is currently blocking (🎉), so I think a few evenings of focused knitting will see these done! A double win … awesome pink lace socks to wear and a rainbow cast on imminent 🌈.
Exploring new places, in the shade.
Last month, I had the absolute pleasure of test knitting the new version of @theacolman ‘s pattern White Russian ... and here it is! I know this is going to be in constant rotation in the fall ... I love all the special details of this sweater. I've written a full blog post about the finished object (you'll find it linked in profile, if you fancy a read) but the short version is I love it! 
Growing slowly 🌱
That new project smell 💕
