I’m done with my project for Challenge #2 of The Fiber Factor! I still have to film the video for judging, and mail the sweater off … but for all practical purposes I’m done. So, time to catch up on some neglected projects, right?? Wrong. Time to cast on three new projects, yay!
For what it’s worth, I also pared down my Ravelry queue and went through my stash and put a LOT of things up for sale — see something you like? PM me on Ravelry!
Here are my new projects, in order of casting on. (I cast on TWO after midnight, the night I finished my FF project.)
#1 — My very own Oswin, using A Hundred Ravens Alfar. Oswin is a crochet project. No, really!
#2 — I’m using Malabrigo Mecha in Arapey to make Hester’s Hope, a shawl from the latest “What Would Madame DeFarge Knit?” book.
#3 — After a false start with a too-colorful yarn, I settled on The Fibre Company’s Road to China Light in Malachite for Sivia Harding’s new cowl pattern, Lorelei.
Lovely plans! I particularly like that A Hundred Ravens Yarn. Yummy colour!
I adore Kate’s color sense — you should check out her shop on etsy (user = ahundredravens). She says its out of date, but they are updating later this week.
Thanks, I will do!
I love what A Hundred Ravens Alfar looks like. What is the blend of it? Looks like a silk.
Can’t wait to see your projects.
Alfar is 100% Merino! 🙂
