body, hem up
that's my aran progress as of this morning. the knitting is slow work, especially after blasting through the gay pride sweater. what you see on the needles took me two and a half hours to knit. the off needle part is my first attempt, which took me over three hours. i used us9 needles for it and decided that i wasn't happy with the fabric.
some stats:
yarn: 100% wool worsted weight in an exciting sweatshirt gray
gauge: 20 stitches = 4.5 inches, 6 rows = 1 inch
the knitting looks and feels satisfactory so far. i hope it's smooth sailing from here on.
