Sharing Creativity In The Round

It’s hot as BLAZES here in the Midwest and here I am knitting a super bulky cowl….

The second Sharing Creativity Cowl is now joined in the round. Because I did use a little bit of the end of the first skein from the first project, I do plan to add at least a couple of rows to the height of this cowl. I think it will improve the fit of the finished accessory but also maximize the use of yarn.

Will I end up playing yarn chicken, maybe? But it will feel good to finish this yarn and mark complete in my stash. Will I buy Caracol again….maybe, for the right project. To keep in my stash….probably not.

Happy Knitting!!

Baseball Knitting

We had to hit the ground running after our Alaskan vacation as Jellybean signed up for baseball this summer. His first game was two days after we landed.

To break up my streak of sweater and hat knitting, I grabbed by second Sharing Creativity Cowl to work on for the first baseball game. I had to come right from work and sit in the sun in my office clothes. Alas, such is mom life. The weather could have been worse for June in the Midwest but I was still warm….

I managed to get a good chunk of the way through the increases but I am not quite ready to join in the round. A few more back and forth rows should get me and then I need to dig up a big stitch marker to join. Here’s to seeing how much baseball knitting I get up to this summer!

Happy Summer!!

Here is

My Sharing Creativity cowl is now officially in the round!

I still have a decent amount of yarn leftover so I think this will be a one skein project. I really only have 12 rows or so left and I will do the cast off. It calls for an i-cord cast off. Not my favorite but I will probably do it anyway.

Happy Knitting!!
