Updating

I'm finished with the sweater vest for now, I did the edging on the neck and messed up by binding off too tight, and picked up stitches on the wrong side of the arm so I just cant bring myself to finish it right now.

At a later date I'll get myself to finish the other arm and do all the seaming and weaving. Now is definitely not that time.

I made a baby sock and it turned out really well, but it hurt my left ring finger and it's making knitting pretty uncomfortable today.



I found a cardigan pattern that I think I'd like to try, I have enough yarn if I do it in a stripe pattern, at worst, I waste 7 bucks of yarn, so I think I'll try it out.

So here's the picture from the book


Here's my front

and back,

all I have left to do is the edging and seaming and weaving.

Sorry for the blurriness, used the scanner instead of the camera

Oh The Jackpot

I went to Hobby Lobby Today to get some ribbon and decided to take a peek and see if they had any of lionbrand's microspun. On my way back to the yarn I noticed an out of place aisle that had yarn in it, by golly it was clearance! So I went back to get a cart and then got quite a bit of goodies!

• I got a pr of Lionbrand us 35 needles for 3.33 (i always see afghan projects for these needles but never wanted to spend 12 bucks on them)
• pr of balene 14" #6 needles for 1.49
• pr of susan bates 14" #11 for 1.15
• 3 skeins each moda dea dream in airforce,leaf,& waterlilly for .59@
• 3 skeins each moda dea lazy daisy in wavy navy, bubblegum & sea grass for .59@
• 1 skein lion brand wool ease in wood 232 for 1.48
• 1 skein lion brand watercolors in sunset rose for 1.06
• 1 skein lion brand landscapes (no color listed) for 1.06
  
• 1 skein yarn bee soft delight in red for .49

regularly all that would have been 70.96 but I only paid 20.68

I'm quite the happy camper today :)

When the computer dies.....

Big Bob's screen ran into a lighting problem, so I'm unfortunately stuck on wee bob with none of my files at hand.

I've recently finished a scarf made from yarn from two sweaters I ripped apart. I took two strands of the pink/white yarn and added a strand of the maroon and it came together quite nicely.

I'm currently trying to finish the baby matney blanket as well as work on a baby sweater vest from Knits, Knots, Buttons, and Bows. Right now it's looking damn cute and it will be my first attempt at a garment. I'm hoping I can use it to feel comfortable with armhole shaping for when I make Lori's sweater this fall.

Hopefully I can get Big Bob fixed soon and get back to posting pictures!
