Das war ein schöner Wollfärbeworkshoptag gestern bei Doris von https://www.greenerywolle.com 🥰
Basis: Yak und Yeti DK (60% Merino, 20% Seide, 20% Yak, 212m auf 100g).
Und die Färbung sieht je nach Licht anders aus 💜💙 (Purple dazu war die beste Idee 😊).
The first cuff is done. Now to knit the next one, after that I can wash the sweater and determine whether the fit of the body is as intended….

Here, you can see where I decreased the sleeve stitches for the cuff, onward to the cuff itself! 😃

In the this picture, this sleeve has been knit to its intended length. Time to switch to the other one, before knitting the decreases and cuffs on both! 😃

Two of the yarn skeins are a bit darker, so I undid my original swatch. Now, I need to figure out how to deal with the crinkled yarn. Using it as-is would mess with the gauge, so I'll avoid that. 🤔

2 new yarn bases added to the website today. Both are currently in limited shades but I've added Culag Lace - a BFL/Silk mix with each 100g skein having 800m of yarn, and Kirkaig DK - A pure wool bouclé yarn with each 100g having approximately 220m of yarn.
More colours will be added over the coming weeks.

The second sleeve has also used up it's first ball of yarn completely! This means that I'm almost ready to start the cuffs 😃

I decided not to work any tapering in the sleeves after all. And I finished the first skein of yarn! 😃

This other sleeve now also has some more length. Looking at it, I'm wondering if I should introduce some tapering from round 60 onward, before doing the big decrease just before the cuffs. What do you think? 🤔
