I love me them gradients! I was at The Yarnery last weekend and saw the last available gradient yarn set from FiberStory in colorway “Marooned.” I bought a coordinating skein of Fave Sock in Muse.
I have no idea what I will do with these little treasures!!
I have been slowly working on my Woodfords sleeves. The pattern says the sleeves are supposed to be 11″ (due to the drop shoulder). I measured the length I would need at 15 inches. Okay. That is within normal limits. I have knit 9 inches and remeasured — I need another 10 inches! All my decrease calculations are based on 15! Are my arms growing? My measuring tape shrinking? All I know is that having gorilla arms is a cross that I must bear…as well as more knitting, measuring and calculating. I find that with top down sleeves, I always have to knit a lot more than I think.
PS – Sagerain mentioned Romi Hill’s Williwaw Cardigan, which I already have the pattern and yarn for!! I am not sure I will go for the gradient look there but I think it could really work!
