Finished the back of my sweater, yeah!



I love the way it’s looking. In the skeins, the two colors really vibrate against each other, but knitted, because they are both semi-solid, they seem to blend much more.

The pattern is Twin Oaks and I’m using Dream in Color Classy, which is smooth and squishy and wonderful. I have the only project on Ravelry with this pattern, which I attribute to it being impossible to find. I ordered mine on the phone from Rosie’s Yarn Cellar.

I’ve cast on the front and I’m almost done with the ribbing. I brought it with me today when I took the kid to Tot Time – the open gym at the rec center for toddlers and pre-schoolers. Since I only had 1” of ribbing on the needles, and I was only using the one color, it was nice and portable. But once I start the stripes, it will not be quite so portable, so I think I might start my Citron now and try really hard to only work on it when I need a portable project, until I finish my sweater.
