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. ❤️

    “In the crypto world, this is great news I want to share. Last year, I fell victim to a scam disguised as a safe investment option. I have invested in crypto trading platforms for about 10yrs thinking I was ensuring myself a retirement income, only to find that all my assets were either frozen, I believed my assets were secure — until I discovered that my BTC funds had been frozen and withdrawals were impossible. It was a devastating moment when I realized I had been scammed, and I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever, Everything changed when a close friend recommended the Capital Crypto Recover Service.

    I never thought it would happen to me, but I found myself in a position where I had lost access to my Bitcoin. Whether it was through a technical error or a security oversight, the feeling of seeing your hard-earned investment vanish is incredibly stressful. I spent weeks searching for a solution, but most of what I found felt unreliable or too good to be true.
    After reading several positive reviews, I decided to reach out to Wizard James Recovery. I was skeptical at first as anyone should be when dealing with digital assets but their team was professional from the very first interaction. They took the time to explain the process, set realistic expectations, and kept me updated throughout the entire recovery phase.
    Thanks to their expertise and specialized tools, Wizard James Recovery successfully helped me regain access to my lost funds. Their transparency and technical knowledge turned a nightmare scenario into a success story.
    If you are currently struggling with lost or inaccessible crypto, I highly recommend reaching out to them. Losing digital assets feels final, but with the right professional help, there is a way back. Send them an email at Wizardjamesrecovery@usa.com

    I didn’t feel that I would get my credit back on track because I have been dealing with a way to get over my medical bills and college bills for months now. Afterwards, I got introduced to XAP Credit Solution by my nephew about his credit services; and I emailed him requesting for help then not for up to three days, I started to see some improvement on my credit report as my score went up from 458 to 803 excellent score without any physical contact. Email him also here at Xapcreditsolution@GMAIL.COM and thank me later.

    I was searching for a loan to sort out my bills & debts, then I saw comments about Blank ATM Credit Cards that can be hacked to withdraw money from any ATM machines around you . I doubted this but decided to give it a try by contacting {rickatmcardoffer@gmail.com} they responded with their guidelines on how the card works. I was assured that the card can withdraw EUR 10,000 instant per day & was credited with EUR 50,000,000 so i requested for one & paid the delivery fee to obtain the card, after 24 hours later, i was shock to see the UPS agent in my resident with a parcel{card} i signed and went back inside and confirmed the card work after the agent left. This is no doubt because I have the card & have made use of the card. These hackers are Germany and USA based hackers set out to help people with financial freedom!! Contact Mr Rick for help if you want to get rich with this and pay off your bills Via: rickatmcardoffer@gmail.com OR Whats-app via +1-920-251-9233 Best Regard.
