Schwups, there we are already in March and I have neat what on the needles, but grandioserweise also some abgekettet. I try little by little to keep the project list retroactively on my Ravelry page. Unfortunately, I have missed this for years, or simply had no leisure. But it's such a great feeling to check off projects as "completed" there, that it's become one of my big resolutions for this year to update my page there. In March, I'd like to needle off my September jacket. That should be doable.
Actually, I could have long been busy with the sleeves, but I decided without further ado to modify the jacket a bit and knit longer. I just prefer to wear longer cardigans with leggings and tunic, so I'm still busy needling further in the brioche until I have reached my desired length.
You can find the knitting kit for the September jacket here. It is knitted in three strands - two strands of Tynn Silk Mohair combined with one skein of Sunday. If you're still unsure about your color choice, check out these saved highlights on my Instagram profile. There I have the most beautiful color combinations well photographed. The selection should then not be difficult at all. I knit the colors "Sailor in the dark" and "Dyp Blå".
My long-term project, the OSAKA scarf, has finally passed the halfway point, I have the fourth color on the needles and am currently unsure whether I shouldn't go back to ribble and swap this color with a dark red. So instead of light blue, it will be wine red! I don't know yet whether I'll finish off the scarf in light gray or natural, but I'm leaning towards the latter. Way too many decisions, I tell you! Since you keep asking, here are my colors so far:
Orient Blue 341 - Cinnamon 302 - Pale Blush 300 - then comes Glacier 347, or Bordeaux 312, or Enji 311 and then probably White 300.
I knit the scarf in rounds and cast on the number of stitches according to the pattern and simply close the round. In the OSAKA knitting kit you will find six predetermined color combinations if you don't want to think about it too much. Alternatively, you can add variant 7 to your shopping cart and write your desired colors in the comments field when ordering. You can find all colors here at Sensai.
And what do you have on the needles?
