Yes, my friends, it is still VERY MUCH summer in NW New Mexico.

The last color, white, is left... And as the weather stays hot, and the sweater is growing... I might have to put it aside for awhile.
It's on #9 US needles and flies along. Each section is a mile marker and easy to see progress. I'm looking forward to making another one with the leftover yarn from this one plus other leftover yarn.

ReplyDeleteI made a throw, I think it is called Hemlock Ring, from that EcoWool. Love it'
I love the tunic. Although tunics don't love me! But the colours are great.
ReplyDeleteThat's what it's called but don't tell my son-in-law! It's a pullover!
