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. ❤️

I almost lost hope and faith after paying so much money for several failed IVF, SURROGACY and other medical fertility solutions. I almost cried my life out of me when I realized I was having nothing left with me, my marriage was almost gone. I have not conceived in the past 9years of marriage.. I met a friend who was kind enough to introduce me to a spell caster “DR ONOBUN”, a powerful spell caster who she said had helped her with a lottery number that gave her more than a million dollars in the power-ball jackpot. At first I resisted because I never wanted to have anything to do with magic or spell casting but she told me that if this sorcerer could make her rich with accurate lottery numbers. She is confident that he [DR ONOBUN] can also restore my fertility. I thought of this for many days and finally gave Spell a chance to get my heart’s desire. After providing all that was required to get the spell done. Feb 15, 2024 was so great when I realized my monthly flow didn’t come as usual. That was when I felt the powerful spell of DR ONOBUN. Today I have my twins because DR ONOBUN powerful spell made it possible to become a mother. Thanks to him and his genuine powers, I do not know what are your challenges or desires in life right now. I’m very sure and confident that the DR ONOBUN spell can give you peace of mind. Contact him via email: [dronobunspiritualhome@gmail.com] Call or Whats-App him +2348051300199 . I wish everyone success.
