Sonnet pics

As promised, pics of my Sonnet progress! Since these were taken, I've actually finished the body and will begin working the sleeves shortly. I'll be going to the Roskilde music festival in Denmark tomorrow, so I thought I'd bring something simple to keep me occupied during the long bus drive. The silk sleeves from One Skein will be the perfect companion!

Sonnet update

Just a quick word to let you know that I'm making great progress on my Sonnet sweater. I've even tried some short row waist shaping as suggested on the Sonnet knit-along blog :-) Hopefully it will turn out ok. At the moment it looks a bit long, but hoping it will sort out during blocking. So far, I've done the right front and the back, and now working on the left front. Took some photos of the evidence, but I left my camera at my mum's when I visited last weekend... I also treated myself to some Rowan Kidsilk Haze -horribly expensive, but I just had to have it...so it will be made into the sleeves from One Skein. It's a gorgeous greyish lilac colour...mmm!
