knitting...with pictures

Ooo....look....I finally posted a few pictures!

I finished my Japanese Feather scarf...well...I still need to block it. Hopefully I can do that today. I really loved that pattern. I was a little sad when I finished it. I knit it with Fearless Fiber's Laceweight Merino, which is awesome. It's my favorite yarn. I used the Hendrix colorway. Here's a picture unblocked.



Last Sunday I started working on my Orchid Lace Mitts with Fearless Fiber's Laceweight Merino in Rubicund. They are coming along great. I can't believe how fast they are knitting up, I'm nearly done with the first mitt. I'm really enjoying this pattern, I can already tell that I'm going to be sad when I'm done with them.



I've put my Honeybee stole to the side for a little bit. I'm not enjoying my Addi Lace Turbos very much. It's my first time working with them, and I just don't like it. There really isn't anything wrong with them, I'm just not enjoying them. I really prefer wood over metal, and I think that's the whole problem. I ordered a set of #5 circulars from Jenkins Woodworking, and I plan to move my Honeybee onto them as soon as I get them. I'm sure once I have needles I enjoy, I will work on it a lot more.



Speaking of bees....
