Behind Blue Eyes

School is still a rolling. But I'm still a knitting. To prove this point I present to my dear reader......

THE SCARF!!!!



If you look at the post below you will notice that the scarf two days ago was nearly nothing. And now... It's quite pretty. The basketweave is lookin good!

I need to buy more yarn for this piece since I have increased the width of the original design two skeins will not cover it.

I'm out!

So little time

FINALLY a new post. School has pretty much consumed my life (my almost all of my life) and I have had to limit my knitting to small simple patterns. Patterns that I can carry around with me at school and in my car and just knit on . Right now I'm working on a pair of socks out of Lion Brand Wool-Ease. The reason I picked this pattern is because I found Wool-Ease on sale at $1.99 a skein and I can get a pair of socks out of a skein. I have about 9 skeins, so 9 pairs of socks. Should keep me entertained for some time.

This is a pair I'm working on right now. This is sock #1 of the pair.

I am working on a scarf. Made out of some beautiful wool I got on sale. It's so soft and I'm making the scarf in a basket weave which should make it nice and pretty. It's made out of white yarn because the person who will receive it requested the color white.


This is a finished pair of socks. I like them. I am going to give them to someone but I haven't been able to give them to them (I keep forgetting them)


In other news I bought the book Wedding knits by Suss Cousins. It's got some great patterns in it. Also. I cannot say this enough... To all you knitters out there GO CHECK OUT KNIT PICKS
It has AWESOME yarn at great prices. As soon as I knit up the wool I have now I will be ordering wool from the website (bare wool) and some dye so that I can Dye my own and make a sweater and also some lace weight and some fingering weight (it's so very cheap). Well, I'm done.
