Getting a start on my Niazuma tee! It is a little hard to see the pattern because theyarn color is “light absorbing black hole”. Seriously though, it’s Slate. There’s not a lot of detail to this sweater – in a few more rows I will be done with the little purled detail at the hips, then it’s straight stockinette basically forever.
I’m thinking this will be an excellent project to practice Continental purling, which I cannot do. If I can though, that will speed up the project a lot! I don’t believe this will be done by the time we start the Arachne KAL, but that’s OK. It can hibernate for a while and then I’ll come back and finish when the coolio spiderweb sweater is done!
What are you working on right now, and how is it going?
I’ve only tried Continental a couple of times. Do you find it easier?
Some yarn colors just do not photograph well. I’m sure your tee looks great in person:)

I don’t find it easier, because I am a thrower. But I managed to pick it up for knitting, and it is definitely faster. I have a Bluprint class that shows all the different knitting styles and how to do knit and purl and other things each way.
It is a nice color – just a hair off black 🙂

I am making a shawl, Expeditious, which was going quickly, but now the rows are longer and it’s slowing down. Plus I have been away from home most every day this week, so no knitting time! Love all your sweater plans, but no spiders for me!!

“straight stockinette basically forever” heaven. I do knit faster continental but I knit to relax. It’s not a race, Alissa! 😂
