color work

I can't believe it's almost June!  Yikes!  Had to run over here to post a quick May update.  I've been working on a new sweater project, the Bressay sweater by Marie Wallin.  I'm loving this knit.  I've decided I like bottom up yokes better than top down!


Color work, I believe, will always be my thing.  That and cables.  Lace, not so much.  


Mia likes to sit pretty.  :D  

To everyone who enjoys tennis, enjoy the French Open!

That's a lot of stitches on the yoke Margaret - I remember doing Shetland Colourwork when I was at secondary school and loving it. I couldn't knit with that amount of stitches these days. I do admire all your knitting and Mia too of course:-)

Gorgeous sweater Margaret! I think I prefer to knit top down. What a silly picture of Mia - she's so cute.

Color work is definitely your thing and you are a master at it, Margaret! This whole sweater is coming together so beautifully... Hello to Miss Mia :) Hope your Maine week was a wonderful one! ♥

Beautiful sweater - such wonderful colors! I'm curious - why do you prefer bottom up? Would guess it might have something to do with rows getting shorter, but likely there's another reason...
