New Projects

I got a big box of yarn from Knitpicks last week, and now I'm well into Christmas knitting. These are the two projects that I have started-- These are the tulip socks also from Knitpicks. In an autumnal color palette. Another Christmas present. I havn't done any color work this complicated before. It seems to be going well though. This is going to be a sweater for Peter. It's my first attempt to knit him anything, and I really hope it turns out well. It's just a simple ribbed raglan. The yarn is the Swish Superwash wool in Jade.

I Finished Something!

I finished this little t-shirt for Sylvan. I really wanted to feel like I had actually made something, and I found this at the bottom of my knitting bag, and it actually turned out pretty cute. It's just sugar and cream, but I think that it will wear fairly well. Sylvan is such a ham. She keeps posing with her eyes closed. This is her new "smile." :)

My Latest Project

HI! I am actually still alive and working. I have just decided to break down and use the Blogger image uploader for simplicity's sake. Which means that I'm not waiting for Peter to figure out what I'm doing any more. I'm still feeling the morning sickness, and am totally exhausted. I am so looking foward to the second trimester. :) So anyway, this is my latest project. I was feeling really good about it until I realized that the beautiful cable in the back is off by about an inch. So now I am facing ripping the whole thing out!
