new year, new project

Monday, January 2nd, 2006 | knitting, sweaters

I’ve been working away on something new and exciting – my first fair isle project!

It’s the “Nordic Memories” pullover from Interweave Knits, fall 2003 (the first issue I ever bought). I’m using Knitpicks Merino Style, which is lovely. I’ve definitely got tension problems, but I’m forging ahead anyway! Things are getting better as I move along – and since it’s so fun, that’s pretty quickly!

I really like the Nordic Memories pullover, I am looking forward to seeing yours knit up. If I ever get brave enough I would like to try it myself.

Fair Isle……ooooooh the colors look scrumptious. Can’t wait to see it as it progresses. Maybe I’ll finally work up the guts to tackle a little fair isle myself.
