Growing
Crichton (in the awkward adolescent "please don't take my picture I'm DISGUSTING" phase)
Ignore the funny color (see swatch for a better representation); I tried my darnedest to touch it up, but to no avail. Now I know how photographers of high school seniors feel.
The azalea shawl
This is actually a one ball down! shot, but not because I actually knit the ball. Oh, no. Sophie decided to be helpful and shred the remaining ball. She must've overheard me talking about my next knitting milestones and interpreted "finish this ball" as "kill this ball with my teeth."
My to-knit list
- added today: fingerless gloves on commission for a coworker, possibly two pairs (they will be done in alpaca, fair isle, colors yet to be determined)
- Crichton (of course)
- the shawl (of course)
- the deep-v argyle vest (currently waiting for Eunny to do her size-enlargement calculations so I don't have to)
- this sweater?; I like the back design, anyway, and the sleeves. I am not sold on the bottom ruffle (yes, please, make my hips look 8 inches bigger!), nor am I keen on the front. Maybe I'll borrow the front of this cardigan that I love cause it makes me look adorable and the back/sleeves of the pattern, and create something new. (The latest KnitPicks catalog is full of great patterns and ideas.)
- Sockapaloooza socks (I gotta start on those soon!)
- A million other things, including:
...finishing the Viennese shrug
...ripping out my so-close-to-done Clapotis and turn it into a circular shrug
...two tasteful ponchos from Wrap Style that I've wanted to make for forever
...Annie Modesitt's ribbed silk corset
...ripping out my Lucky Clover Wrap and starting over (this time I even get to make a smaller size! One thing that ain't growing is ME; quite the opposite!)
...a million more other things.
Spring must be getting ready to sproing.
