Wahoo!!! Stuff I’ve Finished!!
Cinnamon Daydream
Pattern by Melanie Berg
Yarn: Malabrigo Sock in Azules
I am absolutely thrilled with how this turned out!!! This is sweater number 2 that fits really well. The decreases along the side seam leave a really lovely crisp detail I bungled up the lace pattern plenty, but its not nearly as visible as expected. Highly wearable.

Yarn: West Wool Summer Camp in Ochre, Polar Bear, Moss, and Frost
This was a fun one, and I absolutely adore the color palette and yarn. The fiber is 80% wool and 20% cotton. A slightly lighter weight, though not quite light enough for summer in the south. I’ve never done dip stitches before. It took me a bit to understand what was happening so quite a few are off, but they do make such a cool design. The latvian braid looks really great and I never in my life want to do it again. Not difficult, but takes an incredibly long time if you want to keep your yarn from getting tangled.
