This is Damsel, by Josee Paquin. I got this in the summer Quince Quarterly shipment. I knew it would be either cotton or linen yarn, so decided if I was going to spend the money, I might as well go for something outside of my regular wheelhouse. The yarn is Quince and Co.
The knitting portion of my Salal sweater is done. However, I’m trying to do a reinforced grosgrain ribbon button band, and the buttonholer in my sewing machine is kicking my butt. Fortunately, I have plenty of grosgrain ribbon. So that’ll get done eventually. I’ve given up for today, at least. I finished
Pattern: Knit Stars by Kirsten HipskyYarn: Quince and Co Tern in the Buoy colorwayNeedles: Size 3 DPNs Here’s a fun little stash busting pattern. Since I had some yellow yarn, I felt like I really needed to use it in some Christmas stars – this is a really easy pattern that fits that bill.
