Brace For Stockinette!
There's going to be a lot of it! I've started a V Neck Boxy pullover and I'm almost through with the upper body. I've just got the left front to do, then I join the fronts and back and start going around and around and around! I'm hoping to get to this point in the next few days. Being a Boxy, it's oversized, so that combined with fingering weight yarn means lots and lots of stockinette stitch. Fortunately, I don't mind this kind of thing.
I'm knitting this as part of a Flash Craft A Long ESK is hosting and I have until the end of October to finish it. I had planned to make this at some point, so when they announced the FCAL and I looked at my yarn stash, I decided, why not? I'm knitting this in Queensland Collection Kathmandu Fingering in Color 02 Smoky Gray. I used this same color in the Kathmandu Aran weight last year for my Recoleta cardigan and fell in love with the yarn then. The fingering weight is just as nice, only making a lighter weight fabric. I think this sweater will be great for fall and winter around here, and the neutral color will get a lot of use. A gray sweater is always a good idea in my closet!
