I’m working on just 2 projects right now, and neither of them are projects I was working on last time I posted about knitting. I’m not up to 5 (!) WIPs that will need to be finished next year. However, I will worry about that another day. My two current projects are a gift sweater for my Mom, and a very fun little project for myself.
Meet – the Disco Babushka!

The pattern is actually Dotty Disco by Olga Buraya-Kefelian. The yarn is a laceweight silk/mohair blend that is fabulously soft and light and warm. The big pink dots are huge iridescent pink sequins!

You can wear it as a shawl or a head scarf, and it will almost certainly be a head scarf for me. It is almost entirely out of character for me, and I cannot wait to wear it!
How about you – what are you working on these days?
So fun! And also, great mermaid accessory!

I love how this is aqua coloured and has almost fish scales on it, I feel you may be morphing into a mermaid π§π»ββοΈ and I am loving it.

OMG, I wish! I love the colors of it as well π Initially I had orange sequins, but they just didn’t work. The pink is much better π

I love those giant sequins! And the color is just right for the yarn.
Iβm re-finishing a frog hat (knit smaller) for someone who is buying it from me. Iβm donating the proceeds to the local food pantry. Everybody wins!

It is super fun! It is way out of character for me, but I think I will wear it π

Good for you! I need to wear more out of character pieces, but I so rarely do.
