I started a new sweater last night - a real one with stockinette stitch and long sleeves and everything. I have hopes this will be a sweater I can finish in under two years and will actually wear. My knitting speed has improved, and I hope my skills have, too. I love the pattern. I love the yarn. The three rows I've knit so far are making me happy, and the color is perfect. The yarn is a little stiffer than I'd like, but I think it will all come together just right.
And then today I started a new scarf. The yarn is an absolutely gorgeous impulse purchase of red silk and seed beads. It will be a skinny scarf, because what else? I needed a portable project today, so less than 12 hours after casting on for a sweater, I cast on for a scarf.
I have big hopes for the future.
