I finished Newsom on Thursday.
Here’s the back:
The only mod I did was to do an i-cord cast-off on the front bands/collar, and to pick up and work a few garter stitch rows along the bottom edge, and do an i-cord bind-off there as well.
I made this from Shalimar Enzo Sport in the Thistle colorway and used the suggested needles: a U.S. 3 and 5.
That’s my August Camp Loopy project done. So I now return to my regularly scheduled knitting. I was working on a Comfort Fade Cardi that I set aside to make my Camp Loopy project. I returned to it last week:
I have the body and the huge shawl collar done, and have started the first sleeve. The pattern directs you to work the sleeves before the collar, but I wanted to get that huge expanse of shawl collar knitting done before working the relatively quick sleeves. I expect to have this completed within a week or two.
Meanwhile, Loki strikes a pose:
Great cardi and Loki looks absolutely regal.
Beautiful!
I love Newson! And Loki!
Love the Cardi
Love the Newsom cardi. My camp project is 2/3 done. Can’t wait to see your fade cardi. Loki looks regal!
Your Newsom cardigan is beautiful! I like the i-cord finish. And Loki is adorable as always.
gorgeous! as usual
your prodigious output sets me wondering how you store your beauties: cedar balls, or are you blessed with cedar chests or ! a cedar closet !!! or some newer, smarter approach?
Thanks for another lovely post. j
It’s so pretty, and with such tiny stitches!! Loki is handsome as always.
Ooh! I love your version. I’d seen the pattern on Ravelry and wasn’t all that impressed but after seeing yours, I’ve added it to my queue.
Please show your faded cardi when finished. I love the colors so far. Thanks. Kay H
Wow. Your Newsom cardi is beautiful! Well done.
