I’ve finished knitting the sweater and the cardigan and the shawl (although the latter two are waiting for the details before I post photos and finally call them done) which means I don’t have a single major knitting project ongoing.

Before I can start a new project, I’m going to need more yarn, and the sewing & crafts fair seems like the best solution to that. Buying online seems risky, since I’m picky about my yarns. The spring sewing fair is coming up in about a month, so I’ll hold out until then and make do with smaller projects in the meantime, with yarns from my stash.

Right now: another pair of wrist warmers. The first ones I did in sock yarn just to have something, but now I wish I’d picked something softer. I’m making this new pair in an alpaca yarn that I found in my yarn drawer. On the plus side: super soft. On the minus side: it’s black and very fine, which makes it difficult to see what I’m doing. I can see the difference between knits and purls, but counting rows is hard. Good thing I’m not doing anything fancy, just plain ribbing.
