February 4th is Go Red for Women So be sure and wear RED for YOUR heart. |
Now, for the new knitting. I'm working on the Elbow Room Sweater vest and not having much luck with the first row of the cable pattern. I tore it all out again (3rd time's a charm) and figured out what I was doing wrong. I just haven't been in the mood to pick it up again. Later, maybe.
I'm working on socks for the Baby Girl. I hate knitting socks, did I ever say that? But, they will be done before winter, next year.
We think this is an Orchard Oriel |
I've been giving some thought to making THIS sweater. I have 2200 yards of Ecru Casacade 220 Superwash that I bought to make a sweater years ago and think it's time to use it up. I need to do cables. There are some on Alex's socks but I need lots of cables. I think I'm going to start either the end of February or the beginning of March. I know it won't be done till next year, but I really doubt I'll need it around here anyway, so no hurry, I just like the sweater. It's been in my queue forever so time to start.
I'm not going to promise I'll do better at blogging in 2011. I've said that a bazzilion times and haven't been very good at it. I just don't have the "gift for gab" like I did when I started it. I'll just post when I feel like it but I do try to update my Ravelry page regularly - whatever that is.
