I have been knitting, but there are no FOs to show. I started a bunch of new things (more like serious startitis I think) and ordered more yarn (as if I would need any hehe).
This sweater is on hold - I just don't feel like knitting it right now:

I have started this cardigan from an older Verena magazine, I think it's from 2006. The yarn I am using is from China and totally smells like plastic. It is pure wool though and felts like a dream when I am doing split and splice. The garter stitch sleeves are finished and I am not into complicated cables for the body right now, so it's kind of on hold, too.

And if this would not be enough, I have cast on for Pipkin from Naturally Noro, using the suggested Noro Blossom in a different color:

It's color No. 15. One front and most of the back is done. I got the latest Rebecca magazine, too =).


I love the yarn, it's the nicest Noro I have used so far, great colors and very warm. It won't be my first choice for work, though ... but keeping wearability at the job in mind is kind of boring sometimes.
The most exciting project is a jacket I am sewing.

I am doing long sleeves and the fabric I am using is very different.

It will be an outdoor jacket more for the colder months - so I better get going before spring is here!

Nice to hear from you! I like that sewing project - the jacket is really pretty. I haven't tried a jacket yet, but my new sewing class starts tonight and that is one of our projects for the semester.
I hate yarn that smells like plastic! My Louisa Harding Kimono Angora actually smells that way, which I thought was very odd as it's a natural fiber!
Wow!You have been very active! This is a lot of job! Nice job! Everything
are great!
