My team and I do a lot of knitting. It's our livelihood, our craft, our hobby. So I thought I'd share with you what we are currently knitting or have just finished.
Heather, our dyer and shop manager, is one of the more prolific knitters I know. She's always working on a stunner, an then it's done and the next project is done and, well, you get the idea. I don't think she sleeps.
This Zuzu's Petals is one that she finished last week and i think she's already working on another one in a worsted weight. It's knit in Madelinetosh Pashmina in the Dr. Zhivago's Sky colorway.
Here's the project she's currently working on, this Lilac Wine cowl in the Blue Moon Fiber Arts BFL Superwash in the Tea and Alchemy colorway.
And another one, Clincher, she recently finished using Madelinetosh's Merino Light in the Holi Festival colorway. The edge is a little bit of her hand spun, I believe.
Next is Rachael's Variance cowl knit in Miss Bab's Cosmic in the Shining City colorway (we're out of Cosmic in that color, but it would look fab in the Tarte base of the same color). I think the pattern really shows off hand dyed colors well. This is one of those projects you can knit with those single skeins you can't help but purchase, but aren't sure what you had in mind to knit with them. It's a great knit for those impulse buys, don't you think? Rachael said she has barely used half the skein in this cowl.
I'm currently working on a sock for Joe from the new Regia Denim Look collection. This color is 4390 Jeans, and I usually knit my basic vanilla sock adapted from this pattern. The color in this photo doesn't show how nice and blue the color is.
What are you working on right now? Feel free to leave links to your currently projects on your blog or Ravelry if you want to share!
I am intrigued buy the ZuZus Petals and the Variance cowels - they had been added to my list of things I'd like to make.

Just started Wendy Knits Summer Mystery Shawl in Patina Easter Island. Love the color and think it will make a perfect gift.

Heather you are so awesome!
I have A new grandson,Aidan, and I am knitting A sweater for him.
I am so hoping to get this sweater finished and knit something for myself! I can't wait to cast one of those cowls for me!
