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 2015, when I first invested $51,000 in Bitcoin, little did I know the rollercoaster ride that awaited me. For years, I meticulously safeguarded the private keys to my Bitcoin wallet on an old laptop, cherishing the promise of financial prosperity they held. However, fate took a cruel turn when a devastating flood engulfed my home, leaving my computer submerged and my private keys seemingly lost forever in its watery depths. The initial shock was overwhelming. I had invested not just money, but my hopes and dreams in Bitcoin, and now it seemed all was lost. But amid the despair, a glimmer of hope emerged in the form of Ryan Ackroyd Wizard SERVICE , a specialized service offering data retrieval from damaged devices. I entrusted them with my waterlogged laptop with nothing to lose, praying for a miracle. The journey to reclaim my Bitcoin fortune was fraught with obstacles. The laptop’s hardware was irreparably damaged, requiring the technicians to employ sophisticated forensic data recovery techniques. Weeks passed, each day filled with anticipation and anxiety, wondering if my investment would remain forever beyond reach. But finally, after what felt like an eternity, I received the news I had scarcely dared to hope for
    Ryan Ackroyd Wizard SERVICE had succeeded in retrieving my precious private keys. The moment of truth arrived as I logged into my Bitcoin wallet, my heart pounding with anticipation. And there it was – over $50,000 worth of Bitcoin, resurrected from the brink of oblivion. The floodwaters may have ravaged my home, but they could not wash away my determination or the resilience of cryptocurrency. In that moment, I was overcome with a wave of emotion – relief, gratitude, and a renewed sense of faith in the power of technology to defy the odds. My journey serves as a testament to the importance of resilience, perseverance, and the invaluable role of technological innovation in our lives.EMAIL

    Hello everyone, I’m Paul Regan from Florida , USA, and a few weeks ago, I was swindled off $275,000 worth of Bitcoins and Ethereum by a cryptocurrency trader who promised me huge returns on my investment. I was not aware it was a scam until I tried to withdraw my profits and I was logged out asking to pay tax. I thought I had lost everything until I came across an article just like this about Ryan Ackroyd Wizard SERVICE , a cryptocurrency recovery team who was able to recover stolen funds for many other people. I contacted Ryan Ackroyd Wizard SERVICE the following day and to my surprise, I was able to recover my money in less than 72 hours. Their service is truly remarkable and I must commend them for getting my funds back from the hands of these scammers. Novelty dmv experts can be contacted via email.
