WIP Wednesday: Meghan's The Throwover, Part 1
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. ❤️

Earlier this year, I went through one of the most stressful experiences of my life. I lost $605,000 to what turned out to be an elaborate investment scam. It started like most of these things do — with a convincing platform, promising high returns through crypto staking and arbitrage. The interface looked polished, the support team responded quickly, and for a while, everything seemed to be running smoothly. I even saw some small early returns, which gave me confidence to invest more.
Then, just like that, it was gone. The platform stopped updating. Emails bounced back. My dashboard froze. And I realized the terrifying truth: I’d been scammed.
The feeling that followed was a mix of disbelief, shame, and helplessness. I thought my money was gone for good. But after doing some research and reaching out in online forums, I came across a company called CLOUDSTRIKE CYBER Security Company. At that point, I had nothing to lose, so I reached out to them via email at [Cloudstrikecyber@gmail.com]
To my surprise, they responded quickly and professionally. From the very beginning, their team made me feel heard. They didn’t make any exaggerated promises, but they were confident they could help. I shared everything I had — wallet addresses, transaction records, emails, even screenshots of my chats with the scammers.
Cloudstrike got to work immediately. They used advanced blockchain tracing tools to follow the trail of my stolen crypto. Even though the scammers tried to cover their tracks by moving funds through different wallets and crypto mixers, Cloudstrike’s team managed to untangle the web. They identified where the money had gone and who had control over the wallets.
They then coordinated with a network of cryptocurrency exchanges and legal advisors to file the necessary reports. Through their efforts, the suspicious accounts were flagged and frozen. Over the next few weeks, they were able to recover the entire $605,000. The funds were transferred back to my wallet securely, in verified stages. I received constant updates, and they explained every step of the process clearly, which gave me real peace of mind.
Even after the funds were returned,Cloudstrike went a step further. They helped me do a full security audit, showed me how to better protect my assets going forward, and gave me practical tips on avoiding similar scams in the future.
To say I’m grateful is an understatement. I never thought I’d see that money again. What impressed me most wasn’t just their technical skill, but their honesty and professionalism throughout the process. They treated my case with urgency, respect, and care — something you rarely find these days.
If you or someone you know has fallen victim to a crypto scam, I can’t recommend Cloudstrike Cyber Security Company enough. They are the real deal.

My hard-earned money was lost, and to make matters worse, I was conned several times in an attempt to get my money back. I didn’t realize it was a scam until I attempted to withdraw my investment money, which the platform wouldn’t let me do. When I initially tried to get my money back, I was duped by a false recovery firm. They pretended to be assisting me, but it was all a lie, and I ended up losing more money as a result. Only after reading internet evaluations from scam victims who were able to recover their lost investment funds did I realize that WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY may help me regain all I had assumed I had lost forever. Since they had experience in my situation, I chose to hire them to help, and it ended up being a possibility. Even though I had my doubts due to my past experiences with fraudulent recovery companies, WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY fulfilled their promise from the very first time we spoke that my money would be recovered. They are trustworthy and can handle any online fraud case with their skilled hackers who have years of hacking experience. They recovered my initial investment funds and the alleged profits I was supposed to make from the investment using their technical expertise and forensic techniques. Their understanding of the cryptocurrency market played a key role in the amazing recovery of my lost investment funds. You can contact them via email at::: wizardjamesrecovery @ usa . com.
