Finished:
Textured Knots from the book Comfort Knitting and Crochet: Afghans published by Berroco. Using Cascade Ecological Wool in 8020 (Gunmetal Grey).  
Working on:
Lilli Pilli Wrap by Ambah O’Brien. Using Nomadic Yarns Brit Sock base in the Glitter Bomb colorway, handspun Jacob roving from Gnomespun Yarns in the Wolf colorway, and Highland Handmades White Maple Sock in Death Cannot Stop True Love.  Reduced the needle size from US 5 to US 3, 3.25mm. This means I’ll be adding an additional 40% to the repeats of each section of the wrap.
