I understand that Secret Pal 10 is hosting a little contest. And me, well, I love contests. So, here goes.
First and foremost, entrants must make sure that their SP 10 Questionnaire is posted and available for their pal. Here it is. Check!
The second piece in the contest puzzle is to discuss your current project. Check!
I have three projects currently underway, but I must admit that my favorite is Glee, a pattern I purchased from the Zephyr girls. I suspect that I like this project for several reasons:
1. It's moving along quickly.
2. The pattern is easy to follow.
3. I love the yarn: Knitpicks Andean Treasure in Sunset. Very warm color, very soft yarn.
4. It's so much easier than knitting my first colorwork project. Who knew it would involve so many bobbins, and a big tangled mess of yarn.
This is the second Zephyr pattern I have tackled. The first was Green Gable, which I knitted in Brown Sheep's Cotton Fleece in Truffle. Sadly, Gable is still awaiting blocking and suitable photography.
I am still very nervous about the fit of Glee; but being as I just separated for the sleeves, I may be overthinking the project. It's a great knit thus far. . . but will it be a great wearable item. The test will be when I begin knitting in the round and get a chance to try it on. Fingers crossed.
I hate to leave out a third project that I have underway. I am making way on a simple ribbed sock in an ONline colorway that involves white, gray, black and blue. . . in keeping with the Project Spectrum colors for February and March.
