Pattern: Iceland from Rowan 42; Yarn: Naturally Harmony 10 Ply in color 803
I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out though. I made quite a few modifications to transform the sweater being shaped like an oversized bag to something a bit more flattering. Most of the modifications I made had to do with the ribbed body portion of the sweater; I added length and shaping. The details are more in depth on my ravelry page.
I'm also pleased to say that I have managed to complete goal #4 of this year's goal list: knitting sweater out of stash.
I also finished my first woven project: a scarf!
Pattern: Made up by yours truly; Yarn: Little Wool Company 4-Ply 100% Pure Wool in White, Oatmeal, and Silver
I'm really pleased to have finally finished some big projects.... but I'm already looking at what I can weave and knit next. I think it might be time to give the ole' stash a good tossing (like a salad, not to the garbage... as I explained to Connor) and see what treasures I might turn up.
Has anyone else finished something that has been on your list for a long time? And how many of you have given (or thought about giving) your stash a good tossing?
