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. ❤️

Beware of whom you communicate with when dealing with Blockchain.com | Buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, and more with trust. They are not always employees of Blockchain, but scammers. I have recently been defrauded of £3800. 2 scammers named Jack Martins and Kai Hunter claim to be Blockchain employees however neither have an official email address and Blockchain has informed me that it is a scam. I have reported the crypto wallet recovery scam to Action Fraud, FSA and Fraud Department at my bank. I resigned myself to losing my funds yet it is important to report these scams. They are unashamedly nonplussed at taking your money and continue to troll the net looking for someone to dupe, like me 73, and a pensioner. UPDATE 22 July. Having complained to P Smith C.E.O of Blockchain. His dept verified they had not received any funds I sent and yes it was a scam. Just to add salt to my wounds they requested £500 to open my wallet and get a refund of funds. I refused stating I had lost all my savings to a scam and would not give Blockchain something I don’t have. Sounded more like a ransom demand! They cut off communications knowing I had nothing left. But all thanks to one recovery company i read their reviews on Google and i was able to recover 80% of my total cash thanks heavens if you have experienced the same thing.
I am so happy to keep getting my daily BTC, all I do is keep 0.1 BTC in my mining wallet with the help of Brigadia Tech. They connected me to his mining stream and I earn 0.4 btc per day with this, my daily profit. I can get myself a new house and car. I can’t believe I have thousands of dollars in my bank account. Now you can get in.
