And this was the most surprising finish of 2019. Who knew I was going to knock one final project out between christmas eve and new year’s day?
Not me, that’s for sure! This was something I chose to knit on a whim and then got completely and utterly sucked into the pattern. The colorful yarn is one of Miss Marja’s handspun, the black is a rowan yarn I had in my stash. The project was so delightful that I went over to Miss Marja’s house the other day and said “Let’s choose some of your yarn so I can knit this again!” To which she was happy to oblige and we chose something from her stash I could knit up for her collection.
I also came home that day with 3 other skeins of yarn all for projects I can knit for her collection and I am really excited about doing each one of them! And then, I came home with two big bags full of handspun for my own collection, so that whole get the stash under 100 yarns is now a complete and utter pipe dream, but I do have a ton of gorgeous and fun yarn to mess around with! I can’t wait to show you all I do with it!
And with this one last project, I am able to say for certain that 2019 has been an epic knitting year, I finished a total of 43 projects. I really should get out more!
Love the color combo , I had to look at it multiple times to see if it was an optical illusion.
What a gorgeous cowl!!!
That is just gorgeous. I have so enjoyed your knitting and in progress posts this year. YOU ARE SO GOOD!
Beautiful cowl! So neat that is was such a fun knit as well as gorgeous!
That’s a wonderful project to wrap up the year with! And fun to get all new yarn to play with. If you keep up at this pace you still could hit that goal… 😉
