Just flitting around

I am flitting from project to project the last 2 days & rather enjoying myself. I found a sweater & yarn for the project runway knitalong.

I also am loving that I got the yarn for the manresa legwarmers in the newest issue of knitty to make for a friend of mine! She requested them especially from me, fantastic!

I also am closing in on the finish line with the brown cherry sweater. Whew! Body & one sleeve are finished, I just have 16 more rows of rib on the other sleeve. Then I am going to rip out the collar & redo it. I just can’t be happy with it the way it is. I am considering making it a mock turtleneck. I think it would match the theme of the sweater nicely. We’ll see! Man, that is one crappy picture, sorry about that!

I love, love, love how this sweater is turning out! I made it long enough, tight enough, it just makes me so happy to make your own design/pattern & actually have it turn out perfectly! Once it’s done I promise to post pics of it being worn!

I have worked a little each day on the Mystery Stole. I am having a nice relaxing time working on it. I would like to be done with clue 2 by the time clue 3 comes out on Friday but I am not pushing myself. I want to enjoy all my knitting!

I realized today that I didn’t write down the pattern from where I joined the body under the yoke to the bottom of the torso. It won’t be hard, I just have to go back & do it. I would like to have this be an actual pattern, not one of my half assed patterns. It will be nice to have it done, washed & get a good wear out of it!
