Good Monday to all our creative community!!! I hope this week has been productive for you and that you are doing well! The third week of martial law does not pass without a trace for me: I continue to work on my project.
I knit a sweater from natural cotton yarn in a delicate lilac color. I stopped here last week.
As you can see I am making progress! I'm very happy about this! I like this openwork pattern, but I don’t really like the fact that there is a fold at the transition from the bottom placket with the “tangle” pattern to the main openwork pattern. I even thought about unraveling the knitting and choosing a different pattern for the placket: for example, knitting it with a 2x2 rib. But then for some reason I decided to continue working.
In the end, I didn’t regret it because the longer the knitting fabric grew, the softer the bottom bar lay. It took on the appearance of a wave. I like it!
The openwork pattern looks very delicate.
I found this pattern on Pinterest. If you like this too, here is a knitting pattern for it!

I no longer look at the knitting pattern while working; my eyes and hands remember how to knit the pattern.
I especially love this time. It is during this period that I get special pleasure from my knitting because I get joy from the process of work itself. I hope I can quickly finish knitting the back of the sweater.

Take care of yourself and be healthy!!!
