I can hardly believe it was the 2nd May when I last posted a knitting WIP – the start of my cream Heartfelt cardigan. I have however been working on another knitting project since the middle of June when I bought this pile of wool to work on a holiday project…
I knitted a stocking stitch back and sleeves on holiday, because I wanted something to knit in the car that I didn’t have to look at while I enjoyed the Scottish scenery.
When I got home I thought I’d better decide on how to make a more interesting front. Here’s the pattern I chose…
..and here’s the whole of the front I’ve knitted so far….
Nearly there. And when I’ve finished I might even write the pattern up – or not. I’m sure by now you know what I’m like.
Until next time,

That’s a nice pattern!! The yarn looks pinker knitted up – though it’s probably just the light….. Anyway I like that colour.

I thought so. So hard getting true colour taking pics – it is very red in real life. Glad you like it 😊

Oh my, it’s a super pattern, and I love the hooneycomb effect.

Hmm. I think, when I mentioned I might do plain back and sleeves on my WIPish cable cardigan, you might have huffed and puffed a bit. As I am still only about 4 inches up one of the cardigan fronts I think you will now realise why I suggested it. I will wait and see what your lovely honeycomb design looks like with plain sleeves and back and that might encourage me to get on with the fronts. I won’t wait for your pattern though 🤣

Ha ha! Me huff and puff! Surely not.
I’ve actually started writing this one up before I’ve finished. I really only did ss back and sleeves so i could watch the scenery while i knitted. Glad i did though, that pattern on the front is very yarn hungry.

That is gorgeous! What a neat idea to have the front be interesting and the rest plain

Interesting pattern! I am doing a project with wrapped stitches, they look great but are slow! Good for you braving a whole sweater front of them!

It’s not the time that’s bothering me. It’s the amount of yarn. Think i might have used a whole sheep! 😉

It would 🙂
After I posted this comment I realised I really meant a whole fleece, not a whole sheep 😉

Lol I didn’t catch that, but a whole sheep would be funny.

Thank you. I’m writing up the pattern for the sweater, but it keeps getting pushed to the back of the queue 😦
