startitis – to the max

Sunday, January 27th, 2008 | yarn

Let’s see – deadline knitting? Check. Half-finished sweaters? Check. New projects left and right? Check and check.

I started this piece a few weeks ago as some mindless back-and-forth for knit night, and haven’t really worked on it since. It’s a simple top-down raglan in some coned cashmere that I bought from Colourmart on ebay ages ago.

Then there’s this, which I thought was just really cute and have wanted to make for a long while. Teva Durham’s Leaf Cravat, in Handmaiden Casbah (held double) on 4 mm needles.

Is it still startitis if you actually finish the thing really quick? I started Gretel from Ysolda on Thursday, and finished it up on Friday. FO photos soon!

wow I love that cashmere yarn. I have already gone over to colourmart to look at the selection.

The Gretel is coming out fabulous as well.

I personally think that those “mindless” knitting projects shouldn’t count as extra WIPs…
Also, I just knit up Gretel myself, and I loved how fast it went. Can’t wait to see your finished version.

I don’t think it’s statitis if you cast on quickly but finish the thing quickly, too.

Mmm…that tweedy cashmere is great! I’ll be knitting another Gretel when I finish some gift knitting. What yarn is that – malabrigo?

Love the cashmere your using. Did you wash the cashmere first? Or are you using it from the cone unwashed? I ask because I bought some recently from Colourmart and haven’t used it yet. Not sure if I should wash it before or after. Is this your first time using it ?
Thanks

I will be waiting right here to see the finished products!! I love the blue (or gray) of Gretel!

Ohhh Gretel is next in line for me! The only reason it doesn’t currently reside happily on my head is because I really owe Marc his finished Christmas sweater and have promised to cast-on nothing until it’s done.

Cashmere AND tweed – heaven!
