Manic Knitting
April 25th, 2005
Good God! that was a hella fast knit. I knit up the sleeves on Saturday alone! I love that! It’s blocking at the moment but I will probably wear it tommorrow to work so I will have my hubby take a picture and I will post a modeling shot and specs tommorrow or Wednesday. Or Thursday. I have to go out and buy a black tank today to wear under it (I love a good excuse to shop).
So I have almost whole ball of mohair left. I think I am going to incorporate it into something knit with my recycled silk yarn, since that seems the thing to do. So this mass of yarn here in this pic will become something, but I’m not sure what yet. I’ll let you know when I figure it out.
BBBB is coming along, but no pics. I might even finish it in the next few days! I will be glad to be done with that project. It’s a little bit dull and the pressure of getting it done before the shower is, of course, turning my attention to other things.
I so need to get back to Lucky Clover. The lucky clover KAL has it’s first finisher, Winnie from Guavaseeds has made one in pink. Check it out! It looks so cute on her!
I found an interesting article via Lori. Somebody wanted to get an idea of who was using Bloglines based on the way they organize thier feeds, so they downloaded all of the feeds of everyone who has public profiles and began crunching the numbers. What did he find out? That bloglines users like to knit! LOL! I bet that guy didn’t see that coming

Hi Moni! Love the new sweater–I have always liked that design… maybe I need a quick knit… can’t wait to see a model shot
Good luck with Lucky Clover! There have actually been three finished cardigans–2 adults and 1 child size. I cannot believe it because I am SO far behind. It looks like a lot of other people are more disciplined than I am on that front!
Take care, and have a good afternoon!

I have just published some more analysis on net knitters, including the most popular knitting sites on bloglines.

Love the sweater (I have some Colinette mohair of my own that I am looking forward to working with) and the bloglines analysis link!

Oooh - I’m not even a mohair person, but I love the color and shape of that sweater! I may have to knit one after all!

Woo hoo! Someone else who likes to shop for her knits. We’d have a ball browsing the shops here; I’ve even taken in half-sewn knits in search of something to wear with them. Tee hee!

I am wearing my beautiful scarf today. I have showed it off to all of my friends here at work. My friends that knit were very impressed. The colors are perfect. I was so surprised and happy when I opened it last night. It made my whole day. I couldn’t wait to go to work today so I could wear it. thank you thank you thank you. I love you,
