Lot's of knitting happening here!
Kelly was away in the wilderness camping for two weeks and finished the
Dorthelia tank by Corrina Ferguson (from her book Warm Days, Cool Knits). She also made great progress on the endless cotton/linen
Featherweight Cardigan and the
Niebling lace doily.
Marsha finished her
Wispy Willow Cardigan by Cheryl Beckerich made with
HiKoo CoBaSi. This is Marsha's first project with this yarn and the ewes talk about the differences and challenges in knitting with non-animal yarns.

Marsha is planning her next projects. She has sweater quantities of two yarns and is looking for suggestion of cardigans to make. The first is
Imperial Yarn Tracie Too in Autumn Rust. This is a sport weight yarn and Marsha has 1,580 yards.

The other yarn is from
Thirteen Mile Lamb and Wool Company. It is worsted weight in sage green and Marsha has 1,200.

She has two skeins, or 460 yards of
Stonehenge Fiber Mill in Crazy. This yarn is made with mill ends, so no two skeins are alike. Marsha would like to make a scarf/shawl and is thinking of making
Boneyard Shawl by Stephen West,
Be Simple Shawl by Carolyn Glauz-Todrank, or
504 King West by The Knit Cafe Toronto.
