Hello #FinishOrFrogAlong peeps! Today’s Q&A is: what project is on your wishlist to make “someday” - when do you hope to do it or what’s stopping you? Is it a dream, or do you actually plan to make it… someday?

A 3rd project from my “want to make” list - not sure why it has gripped me so much; I normally don’t find cardigans or drapey things that appealing but I am fascinated and think it would be fantastic in handspun. What’s stopping me is getting around to spinning up a sweater quantity of some really cool colorway in the right weight. I keep getting distracted by other things. And this sweater will take a lot of handspun. #knitting #HandSpinning #FinishOrFrogAlong

Two cardigans which show circular pattern from each armhole to the centers. Super roomy “sleeves”. Back one is grey, front is mustard yellow.

Another from my “someday” list: the Chiaroscuro Scarf from Garloe Design. I love how it twists. But you have to prep all these different little balls of yarn and keep them in the right order and your strips in the right orientation. This is not very me. Who knows when I’ll have space to do this as well as time to devote to concentrating on it? But it looks beautiful whether in one color or many.

I have been coveting this Fox Whisperer shawl for years. As to what’s holding me back, frankly not *that* much other than the fact I have two beautiful Starmore sweaters (one fair isle, one cabled) WIPs stalled and it feels strange to start another big project before finishing at least one of those two. But maybe I will since this is significantly less mental burden. And I already have the yarn. #knitting #FiberArts #FinishOrFrogAlong pics “borrowed” from Rav
