In between stubbornly trying to finish my Odilon and starting random new projects I am trying to slowly and carefully make progress on my Robin – aka ‘Sakura‘.
Think it is coming along nicely and have only had one frightening experience with the whisper thin Isager Alpaca 1 2ply yarn tonight. This involved trying to put in a lifeline and failing miserably while trying to frog a 4 inch section on the front panel…with slipstitches. Eep.
It very nearly ended in tears, but in the end I managed to get all the tiny stitches back on the needles. Phew. Scary business.
As you can see below, I am being lazy (again) and knitting the front and back middle panels at the same time – bottom up.
Apologies for another dodgy late night phone photo!

Girl, you really like those triangular motifs, don’t you? LOL!
It’s a great design and it’s looking really pretty and spring-like!
Hah! I know. Chevrons and triangles seem to be what my eye is drawn to right now. Am out of my stripe phase, I guess.
;-D
