This new little gadget moved to our house last week:
It is of course Ashford Joy! The perfect little spinning wheel:
I started by practicing with some yellow corriedale I had in the stash. Not the prettiest wool ever, but very suitable for the purpose.
And of course I had some help:
My creation, 100 % novelty ;)
And in the knitting bag:
Veronik's Oblique from the fall Knitty:
I'm in love with both the pattern and the yarn. The pattern is very carefully written, I haven't found any errors or illogical solutions, and it is a pleasure to knit. The yarn, Maldi Fusion, is super soft, and makes the project even better. The only problem I'm having is that I don't think I have quite enough, and Webs, where I ordered this yarn from, sold out in no time. For that reason only, I'm changing the front of the sweater a little, and crossing my fingers that I'll have enough.
