If I'm not working on a knitting project, I sit on the couch in the evening, my hands are idle, and I'm not happy. I really feel like something's missing.
But most of the time I have several knitting projects going on at the same time, at least in my head, and then the wool for the next project is already here, while I still have to finish knitting the one before that.
I've definitely been having a pink phase lately - I've been stitching one pink little lopapeysa after another.
By the way, these two sweaters have the same pattern , but in different sizes, so they look a bit different. And the different colors and color contrasts make each one look completely different!
I finished the first little pink Lopapeysa before Easter.
I'm still working on the second little pink Lopapeysa, but the sleeves are still missing.
Unfortunately, I'm not making that much progress. I'm knitting much faster these days than I did when I first knitted my first lopapeysa in 2020 after a decades-long break. Back then, it took me several months to complete a project. Now, in my daily routine, I manage about one lopapeysa per month, and in good months with less daily activity, I can even manage two.
But sometimes I can even sit outside on the terrace and the wind doesn't steal my ball of wool... that's really nice!
But the next project will be less pink! But maybe something with purple again...? Somehow, I always have ideas in my head...
