I suppose it is the break in the rain that has me feeling like cleaning out. I worked on our 2 hall closets, our bedroom closet & next I move on to the kids closets. I can brag that I am a fairly organized person so luckily it hasn’t been much of a challenge. It’s been nice to get rid of the things that we haven’t used in this house since we moved in about 2 years ago.
Knitting on the stripey sweater is moving right along. I finished the first arm, now I am over half done with the second arm. I took a poll at knitting group on Monday and it was decided that I can do the back in solid red (same as the arms) so that I don’t have to battle with doing the striped pattern again & have about a trillion ends to weave in. Carrying them up the side was a serious pain in the ass. Oh but wait…I just noticed out of the corner of my eye that I bought those large yarn bobbins! Oh, now I may have to rethink doing stripes. I can totally wind the yarn on the bobbins! Duh, that is what they were invented & sold to me for! Well damnit! Thanks for the input ladies but now I have gone back to the original stripes. Don’t you love how you get to see my thought process’ work?? It is amazing!
I also started a sweater for Sadie, she needs a new cute fitted sweater. So I am thinking I will just do a simple 2×2 rib edge then stockinette body with raglan shaping & crew neck. In the round of course! Then I may do some fun embroidery on it, flowers or some such thing. It will be pretty plain since it is solid light blue. I am done with over half of the body. I may start the sleeves today depending on how the closet cleaning goes.
So there you have my Wednesday plans! Hope y’all have a rockin’ hump day too!!
