I told you I’d finished something earlier in the week, and here it is!
This is the second black Lacy Slouch I’ve knit up, but the first was in a wool/mohair blend and the recipient wanted something that was more suited for warmer weather.
I decided to work with Elsbeth Lavold’s Hempathy yarn and it knit up beautifully on needles that were slightly too large for it – the fabulous-ness of lace: getting even more out of your small amounts of yarn! It took less than a single ball to knit up this version.
It felt good to finish something that I can actually show you, I came to the realization earlier that that sweater I was working on might not actually work…more to come on that next week, and a vote on what I should do with it!
What are you working on to wrap up this week?
Linking up with Tami as always!
The hat looks great. I really love how it drapes.
I have never worked with the Hempathy…..you make me want to grab a skein of it and get busy….oh wait…..I already have your skirt on the needles as well as what seems like a gazillion other UFOs….we’ll see how long I can hold out….
LOVE this version!
Hahaha! having multiple projects on the needles isn’t really a bad thing, is it?
Absolutely beautiful!
A very pretty FO, looks so soft
It’s lovely 🙂
This week, I’ve been knitting dishclothes because it’s all my mind is up for. I think next week I can start getting back into the bigger things again. We’ll see.
Very nice and it looks good on You.
Very pretty. I do like a slouchie hat.
