I just moved back into school, but before I left I managed to start swatching for a new sweater ! I'm using Cascade yarns 100% baby alpaca lace in a lightly variegated lavender. . .
. . . and rather big needles. (10 US) I love the airy-light fabric it makes !
p.s. the above photo is from my instagram feed & I am totally obsessed.

That first photo is fantastic--it looks like it could have been out of a magazine. :)
ReplyDeleteI have also been thinking about grabbing some big needles and lightweight yarn for a shawl. . . Your post isn't helping that. ;)
i love knitting on big needles! can't wait to see the finished piece <3
ReplyDeleteOoooh! Looks promising!
ReplyDeleteaddicted to instagram too - can't stop! your blog is still fabulous. i started reading when you were today-i-made ;) good luck at school~
ReplyDeleteOh wow! It has been quite a while & lots of changes since those days. So please that you're still on board ! : )
DeleteAt first glance I though the photograph was from a magazine. What a nice place on your porch! Good luck with your sweater!
ReplyDeleteA hammock chair! Love it! I'm swatching with lace too, but your project sounds much more involved and exciting. Can't wait to see it!
ReplyDeleteVery lovely photos, good luck with school!
ReplyDeleteOooo, you look really pretty in the top photo. Good luck with school this year!
ReplyDeleteLove your photos and your swatch looks so intriguing. I hope the start of your academic year goes swimmingly!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great photo of you in the hammock. I've been looking at all the pretty things on your blog and love how creative you are!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely pic of you in the hammock! How nice to go back to that. You are so disciplined to swatch first. I need to do that more often and wash it, a must for a hat's ribbing, yeah?
ReplyDeleteI love the first photo :) That wool is lovely and it's something that I could easily knit with !!!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture on the hammock!
