Slowly making progress! Have finished all the increases in my yoke so measured and have a little over an inch to go and can separate sleeves! I wasn’t happy with my contrast color when it transitioned to a gray shade, I thought it might blend in too much with main color and become invisible. But too far in to frog and pick another! And I do love the purple 💜 So continued on… and now seeing it on the mannequin, another perspective, it doesn’t fade out completely and is fairly quickly changed darker and blends to the darker teal and back to the purple which carries most of the colors. So I am happy with it now, PHEW!😅 Thinking of what to do for neck band, wondering should I stick with main color or use the contrast… would love some recommendations!

Hello my lovely MYAL knitters 🧶 I need to share a change of plan with you, and I want to be honest about why. It has been a difficult few days for me and I have been quite affected. Those of you who follow me on Instagram will very likely now what I am referring to. Right now, I am not in the right place to host a live celebration the way I planned. And I do not want that to take away from what this event was meant to be: a celebration of YOU and all the work you have done. For many of you, this was your first all-over colourwork sweater, your first steek, your first time trying something out of your comfort zone. And that deserves to be celebrated properly, not under a dark cloud. So here is what I would love you to do instead. Please reply to this thread with: ❤️ your favourite photo of your Rujuu Sweater, whether it is a WIP or FO. ✨ 3 words that describe your Rujuu knitting experience 🤔 One thing that surprised you (a challenge or a win) 💡 One thing you would do differently next time We will celebrate together here, on Skool, and I promise I will be cheering for each and every one of you. Thank you for your patience with me this week. I am so proud of what you have all made. 🤍

Finally working on the sleeves of the Rujuu. I hade another sweater and a cardigan to work on also 😉 I will only work one pattern repeat down by the cuffs.

♥️ Finally it’s blocked and I found buttons in my stash👍. Made an attempt to knit the name on left arm…🙄

I was worried about how it would go but now I've cut it open - at last!!! Soon I can wear it!!!
