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. ❤️

    My name is Billy Harlan from Texas, USA. I was targeted by a group of individuals who ended up stealing a significant amount of money from me through crypto and Bitcoin.

    It all began about two months ago when I received an email promising high returns if I invested in crypto and forex. They presented detailed earnings reports and trading charts that looked very convincing. Looking back, I can admit it was easy to believe.
    At the time, I had no idea I was being set up. I started by investing just $5,000 and my within two weeks, I had invested $218,000. However, they claimed my investment had grown to $703,000. To this day, I’m still shocked at how they were able to convince me to invest that much.
    Once I realized it was a scam, I contacted the authorities but unfortunately, there was nothing they could do to recover the funds. Not willing to give up, I reached out to a few friends. One of them recommended Morphohack, a private investigator and fund recovery team.
    Their team was incredibly helpful and professional. Morphohack worked hard to help me recover my funds, and I’m very grateful for their support. I’m sharing this in case anyone else finds themselves in a similar situation, there are people out there who can help and you can reach them by email: Morphohack@cyberservices(.)com

    CONSULT A CERTIFIED CRYPTO RECOVERY EXPERT→FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY.

    As a parent in Chicago, I never imagined that my desire to secure my children’s educational future would lead me into a financial nightmare. I was drawn to a 529 Plan that I saw advertised on Facebook, promising returns in Bitcoin. The idea of investing in a cutting-edge asset like cryptocurrency seemed like a smart move, especially with the potential for high returns. I thought I was making a wise decision for my family’s future. The former insurance agent who pitched the plan presented himself as a financial expert, complete with impressive credentials and a polished presentation. He assured us that our investments would be safe and that we could expect substantial returns. With dreams of funding my children’s college education, I invested $20,000 in USDT, convinced that I was making a sound financial choice. I began to notice red flags. Communication from the agent became sporadic, and the promised returns were slow to materialize. I started to feel uneasy, but I held onto hope, believing that the volatility of Bitcoin was simply causing delays. It wasn’t until I heard about Folkwin Expert Recovery’s investigation that the truth began to unravel. Their team, dedicated to tracing and recovering assets lost to scams, played a crucial role in exposing the Ponzi scheme that had ensnared so many of us. The shocking revelation that this was a Ponzi scheme left me and many other parents devastated. Folkwin Expert Recovery’s findings revealed that the agent had used the funds from new investors to pay off earlier ones, creating a façade of success while he pocketed our hard-earned money. I felt a mix of anger, betrayal, and fear for my family’s financial future. The dreams I had for my children’s education now seemed out of reach. Adding to my heartbreak, I recently lost my husband, which made this situation even more challenging. He was my partner in planning for our children’s future, and now I was left to navigate this financial turmoil alone. As the SEC stepped in and filed charges against the agent, I found myself grappling with the aftermath. Many of us parents were seeking legal recourse, and Folkwin Expert Recovery  became a guiding light in this dark time. Their expertise helped us understand our options and navigate the complex process of trying to recover our lost investments. Thanks to Folkwin Expert Recovery’s diligent efforts, I was able to recover everything I had lost. The emotional toll of this experience has been immense, but knowing that I can now provide for my children’s future has brought me a sense of relief. This has opened my eyes to the risks associated with investing in unregulated financial products, especially in the volatile world of cryptocurrency. I urge other parents to be cautious and conduct thorough research before making any investment decisions. with the support of Folkwin Expert Recovery, serves as a stark reminder that even the most promising opportunities can hide dark realities, and we must protect ourselves and our families . Folkwin Expert Recovery  not only provided us with hope but also the tools to fight back against the injustice we faced, allowing me to reclaim my family’s financial future.

    Brunoe Quick H a c k  Crypt0 Rec0very is a trusted and dependable hacker. I am Miss Katrina M. Williams-Wright Frankel, residing in Gainesville Georgia, United States. As a single mother of two children, I unfortunately fell victim to a deceptive individual I encountered on social media. This person manipulated my trust, leading me to believe that he possessed the ability to guide me towards lucrative investments and quick profits. However, the outcome was far from what I had hoped for.

    In my pursuit of earning enough profit to secure a house, I made the decision to invest all my savings into a trading stock platform. However, after five months, I discovered that the website had abruptly shut down, and the person who had convinced me to invest was nowhere to be found. It was a devastating realization that I had been scammed. The situation left me feeling desperate and even contemplating ending my own life. It was during this low point that I came across an article about the Crypto Recovery Service provided by Bruno, and I decided to reach out to them. Remarkably, within just 48 hours of availing their services, I was able to recover everything I had lost. I am incredibly grateful to Brunoe Quick Ha for their assistance in resolving this distressing situation. you contact him for more info. WhatsApp  (+) 170578——42635——

    Back in February, I lost around $170,000 to a cryptocurrency investment scam. It was an incredibly painful experience, and for a while, I truly believed the money was gone for good. I felt hopeless and honestly didn’t know where to turn.

    Then I came across DARKEYES CYBERSECURITY COMPANY , and things started to change. From the moment I contacted them, they were kind, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing. They took the time to understand my situation and kept me in the loop every step of the way.

    To my surprise and relief, they were actually able to recover my funds. I can’t explain the feeling — it was like a huge weight had been lifted. They didn’t just get my money back; they gave me back my peace of mind.

    I’m beyond grateful for their help, and I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend them to anyone who’s gone through something similar. If you’ve been scammed or know someone who has, reach out to DARKEYES. They’re the real deal.

    You can contact them on WhatsApp at +1 (470) 401‑8548 or by email at [Darkeyes@fastservice.com]
