Here's a progress pic of my #TerraSweater (Annika Konttaniemi) from Icelandic Knits. Currently 5 rows into the yoke. And I still have to do a three needle bind off for the underarm stitches.

Been more social than usual recently so not much progress on my #TerraSweater.

Body on hold and cast on the sleeves two at a time using a tubular cast on with a scrap yarn. Please clap for me. Haha.

I'm enjoying how fast everything is knitting up on aran weight.

Almost done with the body of the #TerraSweater before it goes on hold to knit the sleeves. The construction of this lopapeysa is interesting because there are two sections of short rows for the back. Really curious how it'll sit on my body.

Making quite fast progress on my lopapeysa-like sweater. I love the heather effect. With a stop work order, I have so much free time to knit 🙃.

Starting the swatch for my #TerraSweater from Icelandic Knits. Léttlopi is such an interesting yarn. Never worked with anything like this. It's very very hairy and both soft and kind of coarse.

Going to try a size up next to see gauge difference.
