Just two things, actually. And I finished quilty stuff, so I’m not exactly mid-project down in the basement right now either.
Up first is a boring little sock toe that’s looked exactly like this for two weeks.
Garter toe!
I cast on at Hurricane Knitters on “third Wednesday,” and have since finished two Everlasting Bagstoppers and a few quilty things. This has gotten next to no time. In no small part because this yarn is crocking and turning my fingers purple when I knit with it.
In other news, I’d been carrying around a project bag full of Sublime Organic Cotton since shortly after my niece was born in April. Inspired by Michelle’s shop sample (Ravelry Link), I have a cotton Tulip sweater on the needles (for my niece).
Rockin’ the applied I-cord!
So that’s what’s shakin' here. We have a special Fifth Wednesday edition of the Hurricane Knitters this fine evening, then it’ll be a scramble to get ready to go to the Lake for vacation next weekend. More finished projects to come!
I just love that tulip sweater. Looking forward to seeing your finished version!
ReplyDeleteI love the colors of that sock toe. Vibrant. The Tulip is sweet! And someday I'm going to learn applied i-cord. Just haven't gotten to it yet. Oh, wait. If I ever finish my linen ruffle tank, it's supposed to have applied i-cord! Just keep knitting...
ReplyDeleteThe sweater is so cute! I think I'm going to have to knit one, finally.
ReplyDeleteOh no fifth Wednesday! Does that mean that we lose you for Fridays until the planets realign again? :) BTW, totally love the Tulip.
ReplyDeleteOoh I love the colors you picked for the tulip sweater!
