On the Needles...

… is another new sweater design!

Combining a fingering weight wool tweed and a mohair silk blend with little pops of lace here and there.

It is taking shape and I am so excited about it! :)

One of the few things I am finding consolation in with closing my storefront is knowing that soon I will have more time to focus on design projects like this. It is hard to do it ALL, and taking one responsibility off of my plate will make room for more creativity.

With my latest designs, I am really enjoying playing with texture and yarn weights. Working them both together and as single strands. So many possibilities there! So many ideas to explore!

What is currently on your needles?
