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. 🤍

Now that I've finished my 2 WIPs (photos to follow when dry from blocking), I started this pattern yesterday: Finer Pagan Sky. Once I get to the colorwork section, I get caught in the "just one more row" mindset!!!

Pleased to be able to bring this project back to active knitting for the spring KAL. I had to put it on hold while knitting a sweater for a friend. Do Ewe Yoke #1.

WIP #1 (Do Ewe Yoke #1) is soaking to be blocked shortly. Photo to follow once it's dry. I'm now working on WIP #2 (Do Ewe Yoke #2). Funny story on this one. I had gotten to the point of only having the second sleeve left to knit when I discovered I didn't have the last skein needed like I thought I did. No problem I thought, I would order another skein and alternate rows of MC with the skein ordered and what I still had left. But when the new skein came, the dyelot was too different so that plan wouldn't work. So I frogged the first sleeve to the point where Chart C of the colorwork finished and will now reknit the sleeves adding charts D & E of the colorwork to the sleeves so I will require less of the MC. Scale in the ready to make sure this will work! Fingers crossed!

My interpretation of the Rujuu. I had to try to make it a little different, still my first try on colourwork... and I am now a complete colourwork fan 🥰 to me it feels like painting, just now with yarn 💕 (am also working on the original one).
