Along with everything else I have on needles I've got one sweater almost done. It is one that was designed by Marge Butler and I just have the final sleeve to do, besides of course the band & hiding lots and lots of ends.
Today I ordered yarn for cardigans. Yes, multiple cardigans. There will be one in green tones, one in rust tones and one in blue tones.
I always have so many projects on my needles. It gives me variety and I can knit what I feel like working on. I even mended a couple of socks last week! Today I wanted to finish my latest pair of socks, except for the kitchner. Only problem is I'm tired and have the blaaaas. Maybe I'll get the foot done, never can tell. I tend to save a bunch and do kitchner all day.
I haven't knit much this year, as I went on vacation and then my friend was sick so I spent a lot of time just going to see here daily. Then I got sick and couldn't knit, my gauge was way off. So I read and slept alot. I was doing good to even be able to concentrate to read. Even though I haven't done a lot of knitting I have been buying yarn! I stayed on a "no new yarn" diet for quite awhile and then the dam broke! The Yarn Vault, Marge Butler and Knit Picks love to see me coming! Now it is knit fast, for Christmas for Sharon #1, since she is the only one I knit for, besides myself and David. Poor David will be getting only one pair of socks this year! I keep looking at Argyle patterns for him, but haven't found much. There is one vest I think he would like, but then I have to decide on the colors. Oh well, maybe someday.
