Hey all! This is Lindey, and that is Threipmuir by Ysolda Teague, and my very first attempt at a stranded colorwork yoke sweater. I’ve dabbled in hats before, but this is a new one for me. I enjoyed it, and with the short sleeves, it knit up super fast (about a week), and I think it came out pretty darn well. The jaquard ladderback at the feather tips is an interesting technique to avoid long floats that I’ll have to keep in mind for the future.
All this mostly to say hi! This blog is a new thing for me, and I’m going back to knitting in an attempt to stop working myself to death and do something fun instead of working 80 hour weeks because well, I get inspired. I’ve got plans for projects, some small and some probably unrealistically large, and in the coming weeks, I’ll get started talking about them!

I think it’s beautiful and the fact you made it in a week is amazing!

Thank you so much! I’m definitely going to be going back for more colorwork patterns in the future. I think that was why it went so fast, in part—I wanted to keep going to see how the pattern turned out.

Wow! Gorgeous! I’ve done colorwork, but never anything like this. And I agree with the other commenter above… I can’t believe you did that so fast.

It’s faster than I usually work; I definitely don’t do a sweater a week under normal circumstances. Really trying to stick to this whole “don’t burn out and land in the hospital again” thing… we’ll see if it sticks!
