Despite the fact that there are a million things going on in my life, just like everyone else, I'm going to make an effort to blog about what's on the sticks.
So, firstly, I've been working on the Presto Chango for a co-worker, with a couple of extra panels in different stitches. She delivered early on Monday, so I've got to speed it up. I've finished two panels (one in the pattern, and one in Eifel Towers...she's a french teacher), and am working on the last one, in waving rib stitch.
As soon as the last panel is finished, I'll be starting on the Gooseberry Hat (one of my go-to patterns) to go with the sweater. I'll be seeing her this Monday for my parent helper night (15min visit with a homemade dinner dish...co-ordinated with other staff to diminish their own cooking time and limit visitors), so I'll take the gift with me then.
I also am finishing a bunch of squares for my Kniterary Night at the library. I'm doing a workshop called "Crocheting & Knitting, Sitting in a Tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G", about adding crocheted trims and edgings to knitted items. I have a sample ready, but I wanted to have a handful of little knitted squares ready for people to use.
And, lastly, I have purchased two balls of absolutely delightful rainbow sock yarn for ME. I'm going to make a pair of plain stocking stitch knee highs. Its autumn and I don't like to give up my skirts for the cooler weather. So, it seemed like a logical choice to cover my legs with some pure happiness. Toe-up, two-at-a-time and magic loop! Can't wait to cast them on!
