Catching up with a couple of non-Year of Projects items today. I signed on for a stranded colorwork yoke sweater test knit for The Cable and Lace Co, after browsing through some tester calls over on Ravelry. I really liked the soft pinks and grays and almost neutral feel of the designer's original palette, which… Continue reading WIP Wednesday: September 8, 2021
