Introducing KnittyCat!
Well, I’ve gotten most of my new bloggy things sorted out. I found a good photo plugin that will work well for my purposes on this blog. (Exhibit is what I’m using, if your interested.)
I wanted to introduce you to a new knitting blog! it’s called knittycat and hosted by my friend, Judy (I’ve mentioned her on this blog a few times) She is a fairly new knitter but has totally fallen under the knitting goddess’s spell. She is extremelly creative and talented and it will be fun and interesting to see how she develops as a knitter
. Welcome to the knitblog world, Judy!
Judy, if you’re reading this, I finished the “almost gloves” that I knitted for your mom (Judy’s mom crocheted me the lovely poncho that I got for Christmas). Here are the specs:
Pattern: Nearly Gloves by Marnie Maclean.
Yarn: Ziti by Artfibers, in the color, Grog. 1 ball.
Needles: Denise Interchangables, size 11.
Completed: 1/16/05.
Click here for a blurry view of the palm. It’s official, my camera sucks. Or I suck as a photographer.
So what to do now? Well, I have a sqare from the LTKA that has been halfway finished for months and months. I’m going to try and finish that today. Then I’ve got a long list of projects waiting in the wings.
Have you seen The Skinny Rabbit’s opera length gloves? (of course you have, who doesn’t visit her blog
) Love them!! I think I am going to make some similar. I’m not going to use her pattern. I have a pattern for long fingerless gloves in my “Pattern-a-day Calendar.” If you have the calendar, it’s the pattern for Monday Feb. 7. They are really cute, long and they have a cable up the front. Yesterday I ordered some Peruvian Collection Pure Alpaca from Elann (so much for that yarn diet). I’m excited to knit these babies up!
Some other projects to work on:
- Clapotis for Gail
- perhaps another hat for Gail
- Finish Audrey
- Gesta
- Artfibers Chai Sweater
- Jess
- Alice
This should keep me pretty busy for awhile!
