Ok, I know its been awhile, I just haven't really knit much in the last little while, let alone really have much to write about. It seems I've gotten lazy when it comes to knitting. I start something, I put it aside and then instead gnaw through a book (by the way, just finished One for the Money by Janet Evanovich after YEARS of it being in my "to read" drawer, and now I can't wait to see the movie when it comes out on DVD). I guess its all part of the restlessness that my gypsy spirit experiences every spring; the weather gets nicer and I get really restless and want to get the hell out of town. I guess that restless attitude is showing my knitting as well. I'm still in the process of the epic Heartilly Sweater, half way done the back and nearly ran out of yarn, so I raided the Zellers liquidation sale (not that good of a deal as of yet.). I've been working on a cabled scarf with a hood and actually got MOST of it done. Just the hood to go, so much for it being ready for St. Patty's day as I'd planned however.
lets see what else... half way through an afghan, and a march patch for a monthly patch KAL I started back in October, and for reasons unknown I started a baby sweater. I suppose for practice shaping necklines and stuff for bigger sweaters.
Which reminds me, I'm proud to announce that I've FINALLY worn my husband down in letting me make him a sweater! YAY!!!!! I love the way Irish aran looks on men, so I'm making him a storm gray aran cabled sweater using red heart ecoways. Start date to be decided though; probably after this cluster of unfinished projects clear out.
Well bye for now, hopefully I can travel again soon, before this rut drives me up a tree.
