The 2026 Iknitarod is in the books. The trail was pretty clear the whole way and about halfway to Nome I picked up a couple of Iknitariders who saw all the purple yarns and couldn't resist joining the fun.
"I wonder what this is for?"
"This purple matches my sweater!"
"And this one matches my whole outfit!"
There was a bit of clean up, but nothing the team couldn't handle and from there it was smooth sailing.
The front or "right" side.
The back, which is actually the side you are looking at while you are working. This is technically the "wrong" side, but I always kind of like the back sides better.
As always, I learned a lot as I punched along. I also learned a lot after I finished. There are some colors here that are too close to each other, but I didn't notice how too close until I took these pictures. I'm not sure if I'll take anything out and change things around or just leave it as is as a reminder to watch for that and a couple other nitpicky things that I wouldn't do again.
All in all it was very fun and I'm looking forward to my next project. And it was nice to hang out with one of my all time favorite sheep for a bit :-).

Both sides ARE lovely – and I like your colors! Congrats on the finish..
I love the texture that hooked rugs, or needle punch results in. Your pattern is darling.
