Paired up some Suburban Stitcher yarn purchased at zk2017 with a pattern by my friend Megan, Summer Shandy.
Cast on provisionally so I could add extra length from my extra yarn. Added gussets under the arms for more spaciousness. Accidentally stopped doing one of the sets of rows in the pattern, so it did not grow as quickly as it should have! Added sleeves.
Completed while zk2021 was going on from home.

using Knit Picks Simply Cotton in the same colors from the blanket, adding a little green tea heather from the stripey steeky blanket for baby C, also due this summer.
co 48st in round, 2×2 rib. may add cables? top will be higher textured version of the yarn to fold over boot tops.
I used a stitch pattern book to find the nicest rib for this soft soft scarf. It’s a long skinny scarf ith a lot of fringe, but really warm from the boucle.
i <3 hearts! swatched and casted on 2/15 for a sock project to work on during Madrona. The afterthought heel backfired on me, I put it too deep into the foot and they looked like clown socks, they were so long! Considered leaving them as tube socks, but decided to rip back the first heel…
A springy happy version of Urbanity. The Lilt Sock is slightly lighter than the Trinity Sock, so it made a more airy fabric, by just a touch. The silk makes it luxurious. The drop stitches worked up so nice in this yarn too.
making a dress length version with sleeves (?) plus a headband for Leah using the cable motif.
