Work in Progress This Week - Knit Sweater

 Good morning,

Last week I started a crochet sweater using the yarn you see in the image above.  As the work progressed, I felt the resulting fabric was not only heavier than I wanted, but didn't have a nice "drape" for the garment I was creating.

So, I am now knitting the sweater instead, with breaks to let my fingers rest.  For some reason, my fingers are giving me a hard time as I'm knitting so I am switching back and forth between this knit project and a crochet project to give my hands a change of activity.  It works. I'll just be happy when this knit project is finished.

What are you making, baking, growing this week?

All the best,

Lois
