Rosedale needs to be blocked and ends weaved in, but she's completely done.

Urban Aran.... barely started a sleeve, although, another project was finished. Pictures tomorrow?

All right, so I didn't take a picture of Rosedale this morning. Here's how it looked about four days ago.

There's something quite soothing about knitting with kureyon. Yeah, sure, we all love it for the striping colorways. It's a sure-fire way to help deal with the boredom of larger projects-- although there's something more.... the wool is a bit rough with bits of straw and/or hay. Dare I say delightfully rustic? It softens dramatically after a warm soapy bath, thus creating a warm and cozy sweater.

Next up? The Urban Aran. Webs 2/2.6 wool in the ginger colorway, and SIZE 10 needles! Speed knitting all the way!

I'll be vacationing with my extended family next week in the very north woods of Minnesota, so I won't be posting for a while.

Have a great Thanksgiving holiday!

Rosedale is still not complete. One front band, a zipper, and blocking remains.

wait, wait... don't show me.

Ok, ok-- so I lied! The collar isn't quite done yet-- and I forgot my camera, so I'll have to post pics tomorrow afternoon.

Noro-vember

Modified Rosedale. Pictures tomorrow. Promise.
