Holiday Knitting

Prior to the holiday, I wasn't in a finishing mood - but definitely in a starting mood.  I started several new cardigan patterns, as follows...

Pocketwatch by Louisa Harding from the book Queen of Hearts.


So far so good...



Georgia by Kim Harding from Rowan magazine #28.


I have knitted this pattern before but the yarn used, Rowan DK soft was dreadful - they discontinued it pretty swiftly.  Here is the new version.


Not much progress made there.

For the holiday I decided to start yet another pattern.  I had recently got round to buying Rowan magazine #51


and this pattern called Rosa caught my eye.


I'm knitting it up in a very pale pink using Sirdar snuggly 4 ply.



So far I've completed the back and front but, like the others, it's now on hold.  I still haven't finished Grace's surprise sweater for her birthday and the deadline draws ever nearer - so that is now my priority.

They'll all get finished eventually - but as always there aren't enough hours in the day.
