So I Started Something New

 

Instead of being responsible and working on my poor, neglected Meditative Blanket, I cast on for a new sweater.  This is Norderney, a loose pullover with a cable pattern down the middle front.  I'm using Valley Yarns Northfield in Tranquil Blue (it's a robin's egg blue, not as bright as it photographed).  I've knit the back down to the underarm level and I'm almost there on the front, then they'll be joined and the body will be knit in the round.  I've already woven in a bunch of ends because they (and the provisional cast on tails) were driving me nuts.  I'm through the worst of the chaos at this point - it isn't a hard pattern, there's just a lot going on at the very first, but New Project Momentum helps in getting past that.

At this stage of the year, with everything that's going on, I'll be blogging sporadically.  I just don't have blog fodder for four or five posts a week, so I'll pop in when I have something to show.  I'll resume regular blogging at some point after New Year's Day.  I know everyone else is super busy at this time of year as well, so just pop by and say hi when you can!
