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. ❤️

    Cryptocurrency trading and forex investments have captured the attention of many, promising high returns and financial freedom. However, for those unfamiliar with the intricacies of these markets, the risks can be substantial. My own experience serves as a cautionary tale for anyone considering entering this space. A few months ago, I was drawn into the allure of investing in cryptocurrency through a forex platform that promised extraordinary returns. I was convinced by persuasive marketing tactics and the testimonies of seemingly successful traders. Believing that this was a golden opportunity, I decided to invest a significant portion of my life savings—an amount totaling nearly $530,000. At first, everything seemed promising. My investments appeared to be growing, and I was encouraged by the initial profits I saw. However, my optimism was short-lived. When I tried to access my profits, I found that I could no longer log into my account. Attempts to reach customer service were met with silence; my calls and emails went unanswered. It became increasingly clear that something was terribly wrong. It was at this point that I realized I had been scammed. The platform that had seemed so reliable and trustworthy was nothing more than a fraudulent scheme designed to exploit unsuspecting investors. The sense of betrayal and loss was overwhelming. I spent countless hours in distress, trying to find a solution to recover my lost funds. My situation seemed hopeless until I discovered the existence of recovery agencies that specialize in retrieving lost assets from fraudulent schemes. One such agency that I found and reached out to was Lee Ultimate Hacker at telegram:LEEULTIMATE wh@tsapp +1 (715) 314 – 9248. Lee Ultimate Hacker is a legitimate organization known for its expertise in recovering funds lost to scams. They have a reputation for helping individuals in situations similar to mine, where traditional avenues for recovery have failed. After explaining my predicament to their team, I was cautiously optimistic yet hopeful. They assured me that they could assist in retrieving my lost funds, a promise that was both reassuring and daunting. The process with Lee Ultimate Hacker involved a detailed review of my case. They required documentation and information regarding the transactions and communications I had with the fraudulent platform. Their team worked diligently, leveraging their skills and resources to trace and recover the stolen funds. Their approach was methodical and professional, focusing on the technical and legal aspects of fund recovery. To my relief, Lee Ultimate Hacker delivered on their promise. Within a relatively short period, my lost funds were returned to my wallet account. The recovery process was both swift and efficient, thanks to their expertise and dedication. This experience was a stark contrast to the frustration and helplessness I had previously felt. For anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation, it’s important to proceed with caution. Scams and fraud are prevalent in the cryptocurrency and forex markets. Always conduct thorough research before investing and be skeptical of offers that seem too good to be true. If you do fall victim to a scam, seeking professional help from a reputable recovery agency like Lee Ultimate Hacker can be a viable solution.
