Study, eat, knit, sleep, repeat

This month has been “first-test-of-semester” month. Every week there’s something to studyfor or finish a paper for. Kind of stressful. Enter a bit of game knitting:

I have a thing for colorful, striped projects.

Yarn: Knit Picks wool of andes, various hand dyed.
Occurances: Start a new color every day, until knitting for the day is over or color runs out.
Size 9 needles, approx 150 yds

Using the various bits & bobs of hand-dyed worsted weight yarn, I started this cowl over the weekend. There were about 100 stitches that I cast on, though maybe I’ll do fewer next time, since this was slightly too big for my tatse. Using plain stockinette, and garter borders, I started new color every day until knitting for the day is over or until the color ran out. I used a red yarn in between colors. As you can see, some days I have more time to knit than others. I love how the colors came out on this.
