Shaded Tunic start and Cable Tank progress
So this is the beginning of the Shaded Tweed Tunic in the January ‘08 issue of Creative Knitting. I finally got the size 10 circulars I needed. They will come in handy for a few other projects that are on my list. I wonder if I will deviate from the pattern at all, since I like it so much as is. We shall see, I guess.
As it stands, I have made some progress on the Cabled tank I started on the 10th. The first side is nearly complete. I think I have one inche left to knit up before I get to the fun binding off and straps knitting. Then I get to work on the back side *oh joy*. It has been good, though, since I am eyeing the cables instead of doing them exactly to pattern or even in the direction the pattern says. I will take a picture when this side is done. The drape of it in cotton is already gorgeous. It’s like …dripping off the needles. Fantastic.
