I haven't posted in a while.
So I have been using my blogspot account for a while but have been finding that I get alot of spam so I'm trying this out(mostly whether I like how easy it is to upload photos).

So I have been knitting and finished something that has been on the needles for a while which is the Wicked Sweater by Zepher Style. I used Cascade 220 superwash.  It only took 2 1/4 hanks and was on size 8 needles.  Some of the dye came off in the water when I soaked it.  After wet blocking, the yarn soften up alot and I am proud to say that this is my most wearable sweater so far!


here is a shot of the back:


I am now working on Flutter Sleeve Cardigan from the latest interweave with some Silky wool which I got from Yarns R' Us in Hamburg, Pa. I highly recomend this shop, the people are extremely welcoming and will offer you a seat at their main table as soon as you come in.

Anyway this post wouldn't be complete w/o a flash of some of my new goodies from the shop.



includes 5 hanks of red silky wool, 1 hank of yellow Steadfast fibers wonderful wool (I made a tudora out of it and the cables showed up brilliantly), Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in purple, and a pair of size 3's to try sock on 2 circs.

This post also wouldn't be complete w/o mentioning my name on Ravelry which is Eflatkey.

I love how you gave your Wicked an off-the-shoulder neckline. It looks really great on you!

That sweater looks great on you (its almost the same color of 220 I'm finishing up my central park hoodie in!). And the color of that silky wool is so beautiful.
