I Finally Finished My Tolsta Tee! | WIPs, Swatches & Yarn Room Confession
This week on Melissa Knits for Fun, my Tolsta Tee is finally finished just in time for the end of the Tolsta KAL! I’m so excited to share how it turned out, what I think of the finished garment, and whether I’d knit it again. I also have updates on four works in progress, including a brand-new buddy knit, plus I’ve pulled one long-forgotten project out of hibernation in hopes that seeing it again will finally motivate me to finish it. As if that wasn’t enough, I’m swatching for two brand-new projects—one exciting test knit and one buddy knit—and I could really use your opinions! Which swatch do you think works best? Your feedback genuinely helps me make these decisions. Of course, no episode would be complete without a little chatting. I share highlights from my recent trips and even give you a glimpse into the chaos that is my yarn room… please don’t judge me too harshly! 😂 I’d love to hear from you in the comments: Which swatch would you choose, and do you have a project that’s been hibernating for way too long?
