At last, I can see my vision taking shape! I knit this all in one piece, choosing the colours as I went along. I wanted the front to look like a sunset, while the back would be the colours of the forest. And with so many earthy colours to choose from, that wasn’t difficult.

I’m surprising myself with how quickly this is coming together . . . but then I’ve never actually completed a sweater for myself, so this is uncharted territory in many senses of the word.
