going on about yarn again...

this is fast becoming a fiber blog. but that's what's been consuming me of late and so since it's always been mostly for me (sorry, but that's true), i'm recording my progress here. since i last shared knitting 10 days ago, i've finished my sophie hood. i love it. it's so soft and warm. and our weather is still chilly, so i finished it in time to use it this winter. also, how cool are my new glasses?

i also started two new sophie scarves. one is brown and i think i'll send it to my sister.

and one is dark green with sparkles in it. i couldn't resist that yarn. and it was marked down at one of the three lovely yarn shops that are within about 15 minutes from our place. that's both nice and a bit dangerous, since i find myself thinking about yarn all the time.

i'm almost to the point where i will get to start the colorwork on my kastali sweater. i like this red and it's been very relaxing getting this knitted up. 

i knitted quite a lot more on the brown sophie scarf on the way to copenhagen yesterday, but it's too dark to take a photo of my progress this evening and i strangely neglected to photograph it yesterday. 

and i can't resist leaving you with this photo i took the other day of all the things i've completed so far. one sweater, four sophie scarves and my sophie hood. all by petite knit. people on tiktok like to hate on her (why are women so hard on one another?), but i think her patterns are awesome and she's definitely helped me become a knitter.
