[Added on 4/16] Scenes from my knitting project: Slowly knitting clothes

[4/16] York, where we pour our maximum energy.

I'm adding this note with a slight surprise, realizing that the title actually said "Slowly Knitted Clothing."

The yoke with distributed increases is something you can't stop knitting once you start.

Distributed increases are really difficult, and you can't tell if it's a success or a failure just by knitting a swatch.

Nevertheless, my desire to try a distributed increase stitch pattern that I've never knitted before wins out.

The more you crochet, the less unknown there is, but distributed increases are a world that remains endlessly profound.

Since there's a high chance of failure, it might not be considered an efficient method.

Nevertheless, there's something undeniably appealing about distributed increases that makes you want to knit them.
The resulting knitted fabric is beautiful, and if successful, the design will be clean and simple.

It's also a joy to be in charge of a design that I've created through trial and error, and that makes it easy for those who are knitting to create.

Now, let's talk about this top.
This was no exception; I had to redo it about twice until I was satisfied with the amount of increases.

The part about knitting clothes slowly should be after the yoke.

I have a feeling this will turn out to be a piece I'm really happy with.

I continue knitting, hoping that it will work this time...

[4/15] Finished swatching with Isager Merilin

Lately, I've been spending more time in front of my computer than knitting.

When you actually sit down and start knitting, you'll be surprised to find out just how fun knitting can be.

It's not that I wasn't knitting, but...
The excitement of experiments and discoveries seems to be quickly overshadowed by the mental demands of working on the computer.

After knitting a few swatches, it was finally time for the real thing.

The difficult color selection process is now complete.

This time, I repurchased Isager Merilin.
First it was a shawl, the second was a sweater, and this time it's a top in light gray.

The heathered color variations are lovely.
A subtle sheen to the linen and a soft, smooth feel.
The harmonious blend of wool and linen creates a wonderful and appealing yarn, not only in appearance but also in texture.

This project looks like it's going to be a long one.
I'll enjoy my time with Merilin until the day I can actually wear it.
