Elizabeth I

Well, the Elizabeth I sweater is coming along quite nicely. I am knitting the back panel, the rest is finished. I also started seaming the raglan sleeves to the front. I am using this odd seam that ends up resembling a row of purl instead of my normal mattress seam. I am really happy with the way that it's progressing.
Unfortunately, I will have to use some of the other cone of unwashed Harrisville Shetland. I was hoping that I'd be able to get away with the just one. At least I have the other.

the beginning...

I have decided to start a little blog for myself... with the intention of detailing some adventures in knitting and design. We shall see how this progresses.

So, anyway. I have started a new project today, Elizabeth I from Tudor Roses by Alice Starmore. I am using Harrisville Unwashed in an oatmeal color. It's actually creating some other inspiration as well. I will have to get some sketches done soon so I actually get around to making the patterns and garments.
