If you don’t got it, don’t flaunt it

I so do not have it with the finished black eyelet pullover. So much so that I don’t think I will even bother to post a picture of it until it can be tweeked into submission & acceptable for mass audiences to view! No, you don’t understand. It’s bad, hopefully temporary misbehavior is all it is but we’ll have to see about that! I am the ruler of this here knitting domain!

Tracy was kind enough to bring me my portion of the knitpicks order last night. And she was kind enough to hang with the kids so my man & I could get out for coffee & desert at Andersen’s in downtown Santa Barbara. With the lovely yarn from knitpicks I cast on for Brocade 

I couldn’t possibly wait until I was done with other projects to cast on for this! Although I did finish the eyelet pullover, I said I don’t want to talk about it! I love the wool of the andes yarns that I am using and the pattern is neat because it’s not one that can be memorized but it doesn’t really matter if you miss a stitch here or there because the pattern has a bit of fluidity to it. I find it gorgeous!

I do still have many other projects in the works & below you will see them listed.

*orange debbie bliss fair isle sweater

*feather & fan shawl for a friend out of tan/white cotton

*camping sweater

*moms aran sweater

*dads aran sweater

*tangerine socks

*leaf pullover

and that pretty much sums it up. I am sure there are others lurking in cupboards & bags but they have lost my affection & don’t deserve my attention.

I hope that everyone is keeping those in the South US in their thoughts and prayers tonight & in the coming weeks and months. We are very lucky to live where we live, knock on wood!
