The Norwegian Boatneck sweater, a test knit for Donna Druchanas's Ethnic Knitting Discovery.
I love how the inside mirrors the outside, and I love how the facings hide the steeks. this is going to be one super warm sweater!And the Lamb's Pride Bulky, while really too heavy for me to work with now, is just so soft. My hands are not happy with me for all the bulky weight knitting. Now I am full time on my friend Helena's Queen Silvia Shawl, a pattern from Knitted Lace of Estonia, which I am knitting in that Orenburg Lace shown above. I've completed the first pattern repeat. Only 20 more. Helena is the dyer behind the Midnight Sheep yarns pictured above. Aren't they gorgeous? Sorry for the lack of links, I'll get there, but I have just accepted another huge work project for this month, so I'm back up to three at a time. I'll try to add them later. In the meantime, look up the Midnight Sheep at etsy.com. You'll see some lovely things there!
