The dark grey yarn and the rest of the white arrived on Saturday and I knit as fast as I could over the weekend hoping that I would get it all finished for Monday. It didn't happen but I am really happy with the results so far. I am hoping for a sleeve a day so hopefully by this time next week I will have started the first yoke.
Here are some close ups of the beginnings of the fair isle tops. They all look quite different though on the light grey there is a reason for that....
Can you see the deliberate mistake on the top of the light grey one? I answered the door as I went onto the next round and didn't realise until I had finished what I am now calling the snowballs. I like the fact that it is different it makes each of them unique I just hope I can re-create it for the top of the sleeves.
The red one is the most true to the original pattern, two shades of the same colour very subtle.
Anyway till next time happy knitting
