WIP Wednesday #3
I knew I was forgetting something this morning when I left for work 😅 I'll add a comment later with a picture of what I'm currently working on because I don't bring my knitting to work, sadly. In the meantime, feel free to add to this thread with what is keeping you up past your bedtime this week 😉
My first embedded picture post on Lemmy so please forgive if I hose up my notation.
Also my first knitting project! I picked crochet back up 10 years ago now.
I'm excited that I'm starting to see the fabric pattern! I hadn't noticed the last time I worked on it, because it was late and not well lit...

It is loom knitting. This one has 62 pegs total, and the pattern called for 58 for (what i hope will be) my size. I'm using a smaller gauge yarn than the pattern, so my test swatch was coming out smaller, ofc. To compensate, I went up a couple sizes, and basically will measure this panel and compare against my actual clothing measurements when the panel gets a big bigger. I just hit row 60, so about a third of the way done with this piece.

I will also be a daredevil and post my WIP on a Thursday lol Pattern is the Thicket Headband which I'm so close to finally finishing!
3My shawl looks the same as last week. I'm at the part where the rows are really long and it takes me awhile to see any progress. 🐢
