English Morello tart cherries for a pie, second round of ripening.
Did I get them pitted yet? I did not. But I did knit a good start of a cashmere cowl and two and a half rows on the coral reef, which goes so slowly that I have committed myself to a row a day. Minimum. Even if that row takes an hour. That way I don’t get discouraged and I do get to see progress.
The colors themselves say hey come play with me! That brilliant Matisse blue is toned down somewhat by what’s within it and they’re brightened by the Matisse.
Meantime, I have suddenly and in great delight been requested to make a baby blanket for the best-friend-of. So now I know what my plain-knitting respite project from the craziness of the colorwork is going to be after I finish that cowl; I just have to pick which yarn it’s going to be.
How do you ask someone what various colors might mean to them culturally when you want it to be a surprise?
To be continued.

Oh, baby knitting, such fun! So much hope and potential knit in. And good plan on the row-a-day, that will keep things moving.
