I know I said that I still have yet to wash and block my Rhapsody in Cables. And I haven’t finished my other sweater yet (Affiknity). But I had planned to start Framed when I finished either Vellichor or Boxy or maybe even Looking Back. And I kept getting sidetracked by other projects.
Well, I decided to go ahead and cast on, and I’m already loving this project. Yes, it requires concentration. Yes, I’ve had to unknit half a round a few times because I got off-pattern. But I still love it, and love the colors.
I’m using Elemental Affects Cormo Worsted as the contrast and “frame” and Spincycle Yarns Dream State for the color-changing complement. Originally, I was thinking of using the dark green color for the “frame” but when I got the rest of my yarn (I ordered from two different shops), and laid it out, the Spincycle seemed to go better with the teal.
The Cormo Worsted is a yarn I’ve used in one other colorwork sweater, Hiro. I knit it in 2015 and it has held up very well. It has had very little pilling, and feels very nice and sturdy.
