WIP Wednesday: Handsome Chris Pullover
(files.catbox.moe)
I'm trying my hand at the Handsome Chris Pullover after successfully (nearly) completing a colourwork jumper.
I feel like I'm going to jinx myself but it's actually been easier than I thought so far and no major issues. I've had to ladder down a couple of times to fix a cable but I can manage that. Only on the back panel about half way through so we'll see how I feel when it comes to the neck at the front!
The pattern seems a bit bare when talking about the arms, does anyone have any experience with making this and have any ideas/advice on the arms?
Bonus pic:
I've not rewound this yarn, I'm just taking the label off and getting the end. I use the bowl to have something to put the yarn in basically and because I think it looks nice. I'm terrible for buying hobby bits because they look nice, I have so many pins and stitch markers and things.
Like another person said though, if it was one of the fancy yarns that comes in a hank (I think they're called) I'd need to wind it first so it was a ball before being able to use it.
You're right, I meant hank in my first paragraph. Fixed!
Is it a really large yarn bowl then? I've tried using a yarn bowl and I find my yarn doesn't spin properly and just pops out or gets stuck :/
I mean it does still jump out sometimes, depends how hard I pull!
Just measured it and it's 7 inches across/diameter so fairly large yes
Oh yes that's much bigger than the one I have. Makes sense. Thank you :)
