I’m still dealing with a household full of sick, so I haven’t had the energy to knit anything that involves brain power this week. I’m working on the mohair hat and a pair of mittens. The projects are opposites, one has sparkly mohair, one has rustic wool. The mittens will probably get used a lot more.
What are you working on this week?

The hat looks great!

Thank you! I like how it feels, but there is no way I’ll be wearing a disco muppet on my head anytime soon. Luckily I know a 5 year old who thinks the hat is amazing.

I thought for a second you were using Lopi with mohair, which together would be warm enough for an arctic expedition. Now I realise the Lopi is the gloves, which will be perfect. I have caked my yarns for my big brioche project, but think I’m going to try a test with some waste yarn first….as I’m still nervous.

Oh my gosh, Lopi + Mohair mittens would be great for extra cold January days. I have fallen in love with Lopi. It is so warm. Good idea testing it first, if it is something you really want to use.

Hi. Like you, no energy/too ill for much of anything. The only WIP I can work on is a thick blanket for a dog.
WIPs I should be working on are socks for me and a sock pattern I’m designing.

I love designing socks. I like to change up my vanilla socks with simple additions.

I cast on for a scrappy throw that I really intend to work on for quite some time-no deadline. I am also working on a lace blanket KAL where new squares are released every two weeks. Again, a long term project which will conclude around August. My friend and I are going to do a Love Note with another colleague; I should swatch for that this week. I love the yarn choice for your mittens!! Cozy.

I love a no deadline blanket. They are so relaxing, especially when you are under the weather.

Colorful vest for daughter. I have nine inches of the back done so far, and I am using eleven different colors of yarn.

Hope everyone is on the mend soon! I love Lopi too – it is so warm, and so many beautiful colors! Can’t wait to see how the disco muppet turns out 😀
