WIP Wednesday: Meghan's The Throwover, Part 1

1500 comments

Guys, I might have too much time to knit. Is that possible? 

The Throwover by Andrea Mowry 1/2 done!

Early last week, I placed an order with one of our new stockists, Tolt Yarn and Wool, for Spincycle Dream State in Mississippi Marsala and Salty Dog, and it showed up on my doorstep just as I was blocking my freshly finished Kuffel. 

Several skeins of Forge in Midnight were already set aside for the delightful retro The Throwover by Andrea Mowry, so I eagerly wound up my skeins of hypnotically shifting Dream State to cast on ASAP! I'm making the 58" [147.5 cm] finished chest, which is the same size I made for my Kuffel, and measures on me about 8" [20.5 cm] of positive ease. 

Just like for my Kuffel (and with all top down sweaters), I skipped the neck ribbing and cast on using the long-tail cast on and started the yoke increases right away. Because I'm impatient, I went back and picked up the stitches for my neck ribbing right after I finished the yoke chart. All I did was pick up the number of stitches I cast on with my smaller needle, and worked my 1x1 rib. As usual, I finished the neck ribbing using the tubular bind off for a pristine edge!

Look at that gorgeous tubular bind off!

Here's the thing. I probably have too much time to knit, because approximately one "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on Audible" later, my yoke was done! Spincycle has properly named Dream State, as it seems I was transported into such a state as I motored through my yoke watching the colors gently shift and blend. 

(Pretty sure this was the point in my yoke/HP book binge where Harry and Ron figured out what Hermione had already figured out 100 pages ago... #girlsrule)

After I separated the sleeves and body I decided to give this sucker a quick try on to see how it fit. I steamed it out to get rid of any major pre-blocking lumpiness and placed it on a few long circular needles. 

(Late night bathroom quarantine selfie with Hipster Sheep Popsocket!)

It looks great! I'm super pleased with the fit so far, and, from the look of the bicep circumference, they aren't too big, which is a rather common problem in many pattern graded up for larger sizes. Woohoo!

There are plans in the making for lower body modifications, but I'm not ready to commit to them publicly yet. Stay tuned for an update and I'll unveil either the finished body as written or modified!

Until next time, happy knitting (in quarantine) and stay healthy and safe. ❤️

    Bitcoin Recovery Testimony – From a Retired Sailor*

    After retiring from the sea with over 30 years of service, I thought I’d done everything right—saved diligently, invested wisely, and set myself up for a peaceful retirement. But I got caught in something I never expected. I invested $465,000—my life savings—into what I thought was a legitimate crypto trading platform. It all looked real, until one day, everything disappeared. The platform vanished, and I was left with nothing. I felt sick, angry, and completely lost.

    That’s when I came across CLOUDSTRIKE CYBER SECURITY COMPANY. Honestly, I didn’t have high hopes. I figured once money is gone in the crypto world, it’s gone for good. But from the first conversation, their team was different. They were professional, honest, and incredibly knowledgeable. They didn’t make wild promises—they explained the process clearly, laid out what they needed from me, and got to work right away.

    To my surprise, the whole process was smoother and faster than I ever expected. They tracked the transaction trail, worked with blockchain data, and coordinated with exchanges. I didn’t have to deal with any of the technical stuff—they handled it all. They kept me updated every step of the way, which really helped me feel at ease.

    After just a few weeks, I couldn’t believe it—they recovered every penny I lost. My savings are now back in my hands, safe and secure.

    If you’ve been scammed or lost money through crypto, I’m here to tell you: don’t give up. CLOUDSTRIKE CYBER SECURITY COMPANY gave me back my peace of mind and my financial future. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They’re the real deal and they can be contacted through their contact details below.

    In the fast-paced world of crypto trading, trust is everything, and I learned that the hard way, Just a few months ago, I invested in what I believed was a legitimate crypto trading platform. The website was sleek, the support team responsive, and the profits seemed real. Lured by the promise of high returns, I deposited $150,000 worth of Ethereum into the platform. For a while, everything appeared normal. My dashboard showed growing profits then came the day I tried to withdraw a significant portion of my Ethereum. The platform froze. Customer service vanished. Emails bounced back. That’s when it hit me I had been scammed, after the initial shock wore off, I began researching recovery options. That’s when I came across Dexdert Net Pro, a digital asset recovery service with a growing reputation for reclaiming lost and stolen crypto. Skeptical but desperate, I reached out to them. From the very first consultation, Dexdert Net Pro handled my case with professionalism and urgency. They explained that recovery wouldn’t be easy, but not impossible. They deployed a forensic team specializing in blockchain analysis, and soon they began tracing the path of my stolen Ethereum across wallets, mixers, and shell accounts, Over the next few weeks, I received regular updates, transaction maps, exchange analysis, and ultimately a breakthrough. Dexdert Net Pro had not only identified the scammers’ cold wallets but also located a laundering process they were using to offload stolen assets. Dexdert Net Recovery successfully froze the assets. Shortly after, they recovered my $150,000 worth of Ethereum and securely transferred it back to my personal cold wallet. I couldn’t believe it. In an industry full of empty promises and heartache, Dexdert Net Pro delivered real results. They turned what felt like a devastating loss into a story of redemption. Today, I’m back in crypto but much wiser. If you’ve been scammed, don’t lose hope. Dexdert Net Pro Recovery proved that even in the wild west of crypto, justice is possible.

    I thought I was being careful, but one click on a fake email and 12.7 BTC vanished from my wallet. It felt like my entire savings had just disappeared into thin air. I was devastated.

They traced the stolen Bitcoin through several wallets and found it sitting in an exchange. I couldn’t believe it when they told me they’d recovered it.
