I started knitting this guy on Thursday, June 23rd. Friday morning this is how far I had gotten:

Today is Monday, June 27th, and here is how much I've gotten done:

It's been such a quick knit for me, mostly because I am so excited to switch colors. The gradation of the different colors is wonderful, and all you need to be able to do is work with two colors at once.
I'm following the tip from Mason Dixon knitting of turning stranded colorwork inside out. It helps keep the floats on the loose side.

Pretty! When I can start knitting for real again I want to dive into some colorwork.
ReplyDeleteLove this! Superb choice of colours too. What do you mean by turning it inside out?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love this... I might have to get this pattern book on my next visit to HCW.
