I do not regret knitting a sweater through summer; my future self is graciously thanking me! oooh Iād love to see you work on a sweater but a color work vest sounds just as good. Selfishly, Iām looking for inspiration to try color work which currently intimidates me beyond measure.
Yes, yes, yes to trying out colorwork Tashay! You'll get the hang of it to be sure, look at what you've already achieved. :) In the beginning, my floats were far too tight and everything bunched up. I learned how to knit continental so I had more control using my left hand to hold one color and pick the stitches. Right hand is fine, I knit English style. Once I got into the groove by practicing with swatches, I completed a simple colorwork cowl for my Mum. Colorwork with floats is such fun!
Thanks so much for sharing what you've been creating. All your projects sound lovely. Let's know how you get on with your cardigan. It's so good to try something we've not done before. :)
