Seventh Year of Projects - Week 30
Back again! I have had a fairly productive week!
I completed Clue #3 (added the heel flaps, heel turns, and gusset decreases) on my SKA MOCKs and am looking forward to seeing the final clue tomorrow! Hopefully that last clue knits up quickly!
I spend some quality time with my Advent Cowl. I am now working on the last round of Day 17 (of 24 days). This cowl has long rounds (over 200 stitches!) and almost all color work so it is slow going... I hope to have it done by the end of January, but we shall see! I just checked and I have 35 rounds left to go and 12 of those rounds are solid colors with no color work! Lots of color work to go!!
Have an amazing week everyone!!

Your MKAL socks and Advent Cowl are all beautiful, Karen. So much colorwork! And your colors are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI guess you really need to be settled and undisturbed to start and finish 200 stitch rows of colourwork! So pretty though!
ReplyDeleteYour socks are just flying along. Beautiful work on your cowl so far. You'll be through those last 35 rows before you know it!
ReplyDeleteonce the heel turn happens it goes so quickly doesn't it? Your advent cowl is so beautiful - but I here you about those long rows of stitches - progress seems so slow - but the result is going to be awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love the row on the socks that divides it from cuff to leg and from leg to heel/instep. It really makes the colorwork show off.
ReplyDeleteYour cowl is coming a long but that is A LOT of colorwork you are doing. Tnirty five more rows and 200 stitches in each row. You can do it!
Both of these are stunning, well done.
ReplyDeleteLook at your beautiful makes! You are so good at color work....I have yet to try it but I really want to! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteHow fun to participate in a MKAL. I want to try that one of these days. Did you choose your own heels or was that style part of the MKAL?
