I'm done with the lace portion of the Silk Camisole pattern from LMKG. I'm using the linen yarn Patty gave me. I love the drape. It was supposedly a practice pattern so I could decide if I liked it (or needed to make any changes) and get some silk yarn for it, but we'll see.
It feels good to let go of things that don't inspire joy. I ripped the Bumble hat made from that beautiful Art Fibers yarn. I can't remember what kind of yarn it is, except I think it's worsted weight. I think it has some silk and maybe some merino and a nylon or something? I don't know, but it's pretty. I want to make something out of it, but not that hat. I never wore it.
I also ripped the turquoise-flecked mask. Again, I don't think I'd ever wear it. I love the yarn and would rather repurpose it.
I feel like I'm UNknitting more than I'm knitting, but it's cool. I decided to frog the blue hat I made a long time ago. I just never wore it -- it's too loose. Marie Kondo would say, "Fuck it - Frog it!" I'm also going to Frog the two masks I made and the first Standing whatever hat.
I was having a hard time deciding what yarn to use to knit the Silk Camisole from LMKG, but finally landed on the linen from Patty. Haley suggested using it as a sort of "trial project." Then if I love it, I can get some pretty silk to knit it in. Or just be happy with the one garment 🙄
I also LOVE the way the silk I have looks next to that blue Noro I got in Cape Cod. I am going to try to figure out how to knit a sweater or a tank top with it using the silk as border yarn. If it's hideous, well, Ribbit!
