More 365 - I'm doing those in bunches !
Sep. 24th, 2010 11:07 pmI have to admit I sometimes take two pictures a day to make up for a missed one. And my son's pretty practical as a model - though he's sometimes a wobbly one.
My row counter on my current sweater**. I did not originally want a pink one but it was the only one with the features I wanted.
WiP on my desk. Has been in progress for months but it slowly nearing completion. Maybe I'll even keep it afterwards !
( The rest goes under here )
**Which leads me to a question : why do people knit so many scarves and little felted bags ? I searched Ravelry for ideas of what to knit with Rayure Double and got overwhelmed with !scarves! and !more scarves! projects. I don't want to knit a scarf out of this. I love the yarn for a sweater, but it's too scratchy for my neck. And besides, I have a dozen scarves already - actually, they'd be called shawls by most people, but the thing is : I have enough of them ! I want to knit things that I will actually wear - because I have to at least somehow justify my yarn splurdges, even though knitting a sweater often costs me twice as much, not including time, as buying one. Crazy world that we're living in. The point is : I want knitting patterns for feminine and pretty sweaters and cardigans. And I want something not too plain that will still display the variegated yarn without looking stupid.
BTW, I still need to frog Pinky and to take pictures of its littel brother, Amulette. It'ss the same sweater, just smaller - and since it's the same colors as my cat, it has the same name.
