Well, welcome back to WIP Wed! This week, I've gone back to the Symbol Gloves, while I try and get the Marianna Shawl done and out for test-knitting (Hoping for a test-knit call some time next week, if all goes well)
So my actual big project for this week I can't tell you about yet (sssh! It's a secret! More will be forthcoming as soon as I can talk about it!) But, I've also gotten further on the fingers on the Symbol Gloves! I'm working on the fourth finger now, and I've figured out a much neater way to pick up stitches from the cast-on edges (it does involve the dreaded "pick up and purl", but it's not too bad!
Yarn is *Northbound Knitting Superwash Merino/Nylon Fingering, in "Littoria" and "Espresso". Not my usual colour palette, I know, but these were a requested project and are a gift, so, I picked out what my gift-ee wanted! Needles are my *HiyaHiya 2mm dpns. and they're working out well -- I was originally worried that the 2 mm needles would be too dense, but not at all, the fabric is working up well!

And the *DPN needle case I got from *SewSandySew has been -so- helpful, especially as the fingers got more fiddly. Much less losing the needles in transit (or even to feline 'helpers' around the house!)
