Tuesday It's that time again! First up we have a finished Pineapple Jacket.  I hate it. I wove in all the ends, sewed on the buttons, tried it on and then promptly stuffed it in a bag to go to Goodwill. I don't like the yarn, I don't like the color, I don't like the way it fits. Even if I lose Then I decided to pull it out of the Goodwill bag so I could get a picture. I think it's very photogenic. Then I put it away and will let it "age" for awhile. Meanwhile I'll work on those 15 pounds. Oh Oh Look! It's a FLAK Back!  REALLY loving this so far. It looks way small but I am trusting in my blocked gauge swatch. Janet says it will all work out. What's this? Yes I actually started the second fingerless mitt:  These have a pretty interesting construction... they are knit flat and then seamed up the side. At first I thought.. "WHY???"... but then I decided to do it the way the pattern was written instead of converting to circular knitting which was my first instinct. I'm not sorry, it's actually kind of a nice way to do these. I think messing with two circs or DPNs would have been tough on such fine slippery yarn. Pi @ Sunrise is a joy to knit. The Crazy Monkey Creations yarn is like buttah... and look at the interesting pooling I'm getting where I increased from 144 to 288 stitches:  Speaking of Christy's Crazy Monkey yarn, the Smokin' Blueberry Socks are coming along nicely. I only ripped the heels out once. You can't see them 'cause they are on the back side in this picture, but trust me they are there.  It's tough to get good pics of socks in progress. At least the colors look good. And what about the other projects in progress? I took a picture of the Victorian Shawl to illustrate what I'm not liking about it. But the picture was even worse than the shawl itself. I haven't ripped it out... yet. I sort of forgot about Violets by the River. I MEANT to work on it..you know how it goes.... And we're not even going to discuss Am Kamin. More eBay Goodness  Yes they REALLY are that RED and that SHINY! Icer What's Icer doing in this picture?  Freaking Mom out. Anne at 3:06 PM   | |
