    Still working on the same group of projects. The Eileen Mary sweater is done. I think I am going to get either horsehair braid or ribbon with wired edges for that collar. I’ve considered taking the collar off and putting in a ribbing. I’d like to see what it looks like with a stiffer collar first.

    The spinning projects just seem to go on forever. I suppose I might start finishing them, if I’d stop adding new projects! And I’m working on the Lillian Fay cardigan, so I trade off between that and spinning. I really am going to have to start sewing. I have patterns and fabric, but have not had time to cut any of it out.

    First up, the Go To Cardigan by Churchmouse yarns. I had to redo the sleeve caps but it’s finally done. I’m happy with the fit and love Rowan Felted Tweed!

    Next is my second Wingspan. This is done in Knit Picks Kettle dyed yarns. It works well in this pattern.

    Still working on this wine colored fiber from Wintry Flower by Design. I thought I’d finished it, but found another chunk of the braid.

    This is the new Lark, with a BaaBaa Huey Pine Gradient in BFL. It’s lovely fiber.

    Ongoing is the Southdown/Tussah from Inglenook. I was heavily into knitting and this went on the back burner. I’m trying to pick it back up.

    I am very close to finishing the Eileen Mary sweater. I had some fitting issues with it too, but that seems to be resolved. I just need to do the finish work and block the collar again.
