Work in Progress Wednesday 145

Hi everyone! I hope all is well with you. Today I have an update to my Stephen West, Herbivore shawl and a few new yarns in stock at Candy Skein to share.


I've completed the first part and have a few rows of the second section. I actually almost screwed up (or did a little but not big deal). I forgot that I was only supposed to do the first part for 5". Once I remembered (at knit group last night), I already had 5 1/2", but decided to go with it and just start the second section once I got the full 4 rows completed of the portion I was doing. I figured if I have to, I can just make the second section a little smaller since it's by inches as well (12"). No worries. I like the way it's turning out so far. It's funny to see it in picture form. I think the bright red and pink areas are way more prominent in the picture than they are in real life.


This is a new colorway to Candy Skein, Sugar Snap Pea! It's currently available in Candy Skein Yummy fingering, which I also updated in several other colors on Monday.

 I also updated the Sweet fingering section of the shop! All of these colorways are now available, from left to right starting at the top: Poppyseed, Foil Wrapper, Grape Soda, Tardis Tart and Watermelon.

All yarn shown (and listed as in stock on the website) is available to ship today!

That's it for me today. I hope you have a great rest of the week.
