Hello knitters! Here's for another version of WIP Wednesday, feel free to reply to this thread with your own Work In Progress.

What project has kept you up past your bedtime this week? As for myself I decided to start a 'quick' project, a headband for a friend who loves red. Pattern is the Thicket Headband by Mirella Moments. I'm loving headbands for quick & easy projects and this is a fun twist to the usual cable design.

Yarn is something my mom had in her stash, it's was the only red-ish yarn I could find but since it was a little too thin for the pattern I decided to knit it double.

I finally resurrected a shawl I started in 2017. Pattern is winter largo, but I'm only doing a few beads instead of the full thing.

I think I stopped because I'm going to run out of yarn. I might try to find a similar blue-grey for the end. I really like the long gradient that goes from dark brown to orange to blue.

Absolutely stunning pattern, I love how different yours is going to be just by using warmer colours than most. Best of luck finding a good match for the last part!

Dang that's a beautiful pattern and I love the gradient on the yarn you're using.
