Something New

So Tuesday I mentioned that I only needed to sew down the pockets and weave in the ends of my Capture the Moment cardigan to finish it.  I haven't done any of that.  Instead I decided to start something new.  Remember the Cranberry Merino I spun over the summer?  I wound the skeins and started knitting it!

This is the start of another Pink Memories pullover - I'm calling it Cranberry Memories.  I knit this pattern a few years ago (in pink) and I thought it would be nice in handspun.  The front is worked in garter stitch while the sleeves and back are stockinette.  Also, there's a cute little pocket at the lower front.  I've just separated out the sleeve stitches from the body stitches.  It's amazing what a little change in gauge can do for your knitting speed!

I'll get those pockets sewn down on the cardigan - eventually...
