There are way too many cool knitting patterns out there in the world. I held them off for as long as i could trying to be a diehard crocheter, but i've succummbed. It all started with these socks. This got me over the knitting hump so to speak, and now i have a little more confidence than i probably should have. I started eunny jang's deep v argyle vest last month, which of course is not done, and now i've started a new project, Knitty's Viveka. I cast on thursday night and this is where i'm at...
I'm using lion brand wool ease in cranberry, and fisherman for the trim. Its a lot of stockinette, like gigantic stretches of stockinette, but it doesn't bother me like it does some knitters. I like the boring patterns because i can work them faster. The only thing i'm worried about on this sweater is the lack of waist shaping, hopefully this wont turn into a potato sack on me!
