Winter Is Coming

I did finish binding off the 22 Little Clouds shawl yesterday, with 17 grams of yarn left. I’ll get it washed and then show a photo of it, but it is perfect.

Now it’s time to resurrect an old project. This is Rogue, done in Peace Fleece. That color photo is pretty close to the real thing (Amaranth is the color name). I’ve been working on this for almost two years, so I think it’s time to get this one done. I have the back done, and am working on the front. Then the hood and sleeves, and it will be my go-to winter sweater.

Here’s a close up of the side cable. This photo shows it much pinker than it really is. The actual color is a deep garnet, with little flecks of blue and black. The lighter color bits seen in all of my knitting are usually Corgi fur, with an occasional silver strand from me.

I know it still feels like summer, but it has been dropping into the 50’s here at night, so autumn and winter aren’t far off. What’s everybody planning for cool weather knitting?
