Because this baby’s going fast! The cotton was calling to me, so I started on my Chevron Rib Tank. Here’s the back. I am loving this stitch pattern! And this Blue Sky Cotton? It’s abso-friggen-lutely divine! I am so glad I am using it for this project! sooo soft. My progress on it will probably slow down because tommorrow’s Monday and you know how the ‘ole job gets in the way of the knitting. Damn job.
I’ve also been working a little bit on Lucky Clover. She’s not being neglected. Knitting this is hurting my fingers, though. Seriously, Friday night, after knitting it for a little while, I had a sharp, shooting pain in my pinky and it felt numb. I think I’m knitting a little bit too tightly or something. I need to chill out, I guess. That’s why I picked up the Chevron Tank. The color of the yarn is so soothing, not to mention the softness of the cotton.
Gotta jet. Need to make dinner. Later.

You’re really cookin’ on that tank! Can’t wait to see your Lucky, I know that I’m going to want to cast on for it as soon as I see yours all done.

I understand about work getting in the way of more interesting prospects. I think I might have to take a day off to finish my baby pants…the shower is next weekend! You’re making great progress…can’t wait to see the tank…I really like the look of that tank.

So that is what Lucky Clover progress looks like… I have not seen any over at my place…
Hope your fingers feel better–maybe you can develop some finger exercises? I find myself stretching out my hands all of the time while knitting…

Your Chevron is looking great. I love that baby blue color!
Hey…have a drink before you start knitting & that will relax your hands while knitting.
