So glad that I didn’t frog this – totally has grown on me. Just finished row 7 and section 4. Only have used about 1 ounce of yarn so far… so while it’s going quick now I suspect it will slow down at several hundred stitches. It’s so mindless and easy – a nice knit.

Well, well…we’ve got a FO to show off today. Love, love, love how this turned out. I have to admit the yarn is still bleeding, but still love it. I started my Citron shawl, but don’t think this is going to work. It just seems a bit too busy. I’m thinking I’m going to have [...] Poor Max needs a top knot trim. Every groomer we’ve had loves to leave his top knot high. The only problem is it falls over when it gets to long. They have a standing appointment at the groomer every 4-weeks. This time its 5-weeks because they have a dog show to go to, so their [...] Look!!! Two finished objects this month so far… whohoo… This is a lovely free Ravelry pattern – 198 Yards of Heaven. I used some love Karaoke that was a gift from my two knitting buds — Beverly and Dawn. I have two more balls that might become another one of these…because it’s perfect size to [...] So our knitting guild is having a knit-a-long and one of the projects is this 198 Yards of Heaven Scarf (Rav link to Free Pattern). Well I’m at the 2.5 repeat point where I’m supposed to start the end pattern, but I think I’m going to keep going for another repeat or so. I have [...] Finally I finished up Multnomah and even got the two ends woven end and blocked it. Love it… if I was to do it over again, I would put markers in between each repeat. I kept missing a YO here and there…fixable, but a complete PITA. I also got the turkey potpie fillings done. I [...] I nearly have a Multnomah… one more repeat to go. I decided to stitch on my crewel practice piece yesterday instead of wrapping this up. I finally broke down and ordered a seat frame from The Crewel Work Company. I had a little b-day money left and I think since my right hand is a [...] So I’ve done a little blog housekeeping today. I’m sure I’ve should’ve been doing the regular type, but whatever, I’ll get to it… eventually. You’ll see I have a new banner. Finally. I’ve had that one on my list forever to do. The basic really wasn’t cutting it. So that and a matching new favicon [...] So there’s not much new to report. Still working out in the yard. Spent 2 more hours out there in 80-degree heat. I know… I’ve lost my mind. I’m trying to find some joy in gardening. I know some people really enjoy this – I may just not be one of them. I like going [...] What a title. I swear it can’t just be me that has trouble with these things, can it? I’m making steady progress on the shawl. Dang that sleeping thing. At least I have the second ball on. Moving along swimmingly. I have a new obsession. I was browsing in the book store – a 40% [...]  |
