Well, I can’t take much more of the Republican drama this week, can you?
Time for a Knit-a-palooza! I’ve had plenty of knitting time with all the Dem convention watching last week…
I finished sewing together my funky linen sweater, and I love the colors of the yarn:
(and yes, I do hate having my picture taken-why do you ask?)
While I was at the Hardcore metal band concert on Sunday night, I grabbed a ball of yarn and started a pair of fingerless gloves for one of my ‘adopted sons’:
When finished, they’ll be close relatives of this pair of mitts.
Since it was CBtE’s birthday last week, I cast on a new pair of socks for him while watching the convention speeches (using the Froot Loop pattern) and am all ready to turn the heel already. They’re actually a little more hot pink than red in person…I want to steal them. Sigh.
And then I have to wind up the yarn to start his new sweater:
The Urban Aran Cardigan. I’m using a dark moss color for his, and I think it’ll look great.
That’s about it. What’s needling you this week?
