Fair isle friday. Knitting on a stranded project bag. It’s going to be steeked. Provisional CO. Yarn handdyed by me. #knitting #fairislefriday #handdyed #mushroomdyeing
Am out of sync with ##FairIsleFriday but am not bothered.
The body of this cardie has progressed slowly. When I finish this band of dk red and yellow I'm grafting shoulders. Not decided if I'm first cutting sleeve holes Norwegian method, or knitting sleeves first. Will do one or other this holiday.
Will cut front opening and neckline Norwegian method, following an Arne&Carlos example.
Get to try picking up a lot of stitches for facings.

Second #FiberArtClub #FiberFriday post (I promise to stop in a minute!). Yes, my favourite fabric is wool (again), but this time, knitting wool not woven fabric - specifically, Shetland wool. This is a baby jumper I made for a work colleague, using wool left over from the blanket I shared on Monday #knitting #FairIsleFriday #FiberArtCamp
@the_Effekt #fairislefriday for the knitting crew! Though technically I guess it should be #FairIsleFriday
This week's #FairIsleFriday #knitting #colourwork #ShetlandWool
I can see the "seam" for the start of the round but don't care. Can add some decorative Swiss darning or something. It'll be a side seam.
This sweater has a rainbow of colourwork. Am now starting the band with yellow as MC.
2 pics, 1 with flash.

Fair Isle Friday is a bit early bc I'm busy tomorrow.
Moved to 2 circs to let my knitting sprawl a bit: I was concerned my colourwork tension was too tight as I worked a lot of stitches on 1 needle.
Viewed from the back the tension is improving.
