3rd month and more...

March has been a good month knitting-wise, but April started so quickly, and until now I had no time reporting my efforts in my yarn diet...nothing really exciting, but I hope the finishings I'll be doing next will be nicer and more gratifying.

Here is what I did in April :

I continued the green wool cotton cardi, 450 gr worth of it :-)

I did this Big Wool Cowl :

And what happens when 2 fluffy yarn balls meet when getting out from the stash :they mesh into a furry scarf!

This making 450 + 200 + 100 = 750 grams of yarn.

And since the April month has begun, I only knit about 50 grams of wool cotton, finishing so the knitting part of the cardigan. It's now a nice little pile of knitted pieces, waiting for the finishings :

Now on the needles, I have once again Big wool : it helps a lot to manage 500 grams per month, and even though I feel like it is a bit of cheating, it is very motivating.

And here is a non reported FO from last november :

a citron in my own handspun from moonrover's batts. It is lovely, very colourful, but although I followed the pattern till the end, it didn't grow much when blocking. So it is more like a scarflette, really. Cute and colourful scarflette.
