So clue 2 is officially done and I’m loving it! But, I noticed that my tension was quite off with some of the longer floating sections of color work, so it’s kinda a mess. I’m so torn. Do I continue and hope blocking fixes it, or do I frog and restart, maybe going up a needle size in the section in question. I don’t have a lot of time off work, so it would put me way behind to restart now, but also it might be the best to do it now before I get too far into it and realize I hate it. It’s still very close to gauge, but it does noticeably scrunch in in that section, even though there are increases…. Idk. I’ll probably just frog it and cut my losses now and hurry to catch back up. Also, does anyone else keep a knitting journal? I love it as I don’t have a printer and I like a physical copy of color work charts as I like being able to cover up the chart I haven’t gotten to yet and I like having just what I’m working on written down without any other size details or extras as it slows me down in my workflow

If you’ve been spending time on here lately, you’ve probably seen some of the stunning colour combos for the Rujuu Sweater. If you’re feeling inspired and want to play with your favourite pairings without the mystery, I have just released a new pattern! Meet the Elza Sweater. It’s my latest top-down raglan, inspired by another traditional Latvian mitten motif. The pattern is super intuitive with mostly short floats, making it a very meditative knit. You can get the pattern now on Ravelry and Etsy. Use the code ELZA20 to get 20% off through February 8th. (Heads up, newsletter subscribers: check your inbox for an even better exclusive code!) If you run into any issues with the code, please reach out before you finish checking out, as I can't apply discounts once the transaction is complete. Happy knitting!

Hinweis 2 fertig! Mit einigen Höhen und Tiefen. Ich war mir wegen der pinken Farbe sehr unsicher, wollte es nicht zu bunt haben. Aber ich wollte auch unbedingt nur Garnreste verwenden. Jetzt nach Hinweis 2 gefällt es mir sehr gut! Zanete ich muss dir ein großes Lob aussprechen. Du entwirfst unfassbar schöne Desings und schaffst es auch noch sie sehr gut verständlich zu vermitteln. Vielen Dank dafür!

The colors are growing in me but feeling it is a little busy

So sad that i have a terrible cold and cant keep my eyes open long enough to finish!
