I’ve finished Clue 4, side 1,which means I’m up-to-date with the clues, but on side 2, I’m only a little way into Clue 2. I’ve been slowed down by knitting a pair of socks for my mother’s birthday (she wanted short, plain, boring, so no pics) but I’m planning to spend all this week’s knitting time on the MS2. I’m hoping at least to finish Clue 3 before Clue 5 comes out next Friday.
I have both ends on a single circular needle, but I knitted one end off onto a spare one so I could pin the stole out for a progress photo. I used blocking wires down the sides this time. At the moment, it is 31″ by 14″ stretched fairly hard. From a quick calculation, [edited from this point after a hasty recalculation] if I block it about as hard as I stretched it today, it should end up about 14″ by 72″, which is close to what I hoped.
So, here is the photo of the stole so far …
oh your stole is really lovely! I was having a hard time visualizing how clues 3 and 4 would work once knit. SO glad you posted the picture! I was getting a bit worried. =} THANKS!
Gorgeous!
Very pretty, I love how it’s coming along!
Very nice. I have all of 3 done on both sides, and have started 4 on one side but haven’t gotten to 5 on either side. It’s going to be gorgeous though, isn’t it.
