Calculations have commenced on the Subway Sweater. I got the nicest fabric with US6 as the label recommends. I have to say, this Jo Sharp Soho Summer is a dream to knit with. It feels great on the fingers. It's also structured in an interesting way.
Here's a closer look at the fibers:
See how it's all ropey and weavy? I LOVE that!
Anyway, so I'm completely geeking out on the Knitting Maths. Not only am I recalculating this pattern, but I'm charting out some other patterns in progress to make them easier to read.
My only fear is running into complex Knitting Maths which require more left brain activity than I'm used to. But, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
As for other project progress, my Cheery Socks are almost finished.
These socks feel so good, I almost can't stand it! VERY soft. Perfect for slipping on after a day's work. And, cute enough to wear with clogs. What more can you ask for? Now, I must go hunt down more of this Regia stuff because these colors...they are shweeet!
Many people have asked for a pair of their own, so I need to stock up!

Yes, I do like that Jo Sharp yarn, and the color, of course, is my favorite part! Hopefully the Maths don't drive you bonkers :). I have a feeling it will work out just fine, even if the left brain gets involved!
You are even more methodical than I am. Great job!
I love the red -- that's going to be one great sweater.
I love the Jo Sharp.. It looks like such a wonderful yarn and I have yet to try! Yay sock #2... its coming along nice.
Glad you liked my kitty pictures! Have a great weekend!
The red yarn is beautiful. My favorites color to knit. And who wouldn't want a pair of those stripes socks? They look good enough to eat! Remind me of sherbert flavs. yum!
Nice yarn...love that red. You have got the best digital camera - mine won't take nice texture shots like that - the focus goes all wonky. I'll have to tinker with the settings tonight...see if I can get myself some yarn porn.
