I’ve had this knitting pattern (A Thousand and One Suns by ZANETE knits) in my head for quite some time now. The pattern is simply beautiful, but it is worked with a yoke, something that is always a bit difficult with my shoulders, but I just had to give it a try now.
(INFO: unpaid & unsolicited advertising, as knitting pattern, designer and wool used are mentioned)
I really like how it looks so far, even though I can definitely see room for improvement in my thread tension… but I’m not really proficient in colour work yet, and as a ‘very tight’ knitter, it’s also a bit difficult to get the work to be ‘loose’.
About the used yarn
Although the wool mentioned is beautiful, it is far beyond my financial means, so I decided to use Winter Glow in colour 03 and as contrast Winter Glow solid also in colour 03 (both by Hobbii) and I really like my colour choice.
And unfortunately, yes unfortunately, it is a little tight around the shoulders, but at the moment I am still optimistic. I just need to try out a piece of sleeve to see how it looks in terms of my freedom of movement and the fit. So for now it’s still a case of hoping and praying…
