Blog loser
That's me. Blog loser.
It just seems to me that I would rather knit than blog about knitting LOL.
I will keep the blog because I do like posting pictures of WIP and FOs. I just don't have much to talk about it seems.
A lot has been going on around here. I have four children that keep me quite busy. I also work on the weekends, double shifts...often 10-12 hrs per weekend day. And as if that weren't enough, I start back to college next month. It's definitely going to crimp my knitting time. Unless I can sneak my knitting into the classrooms LOL.
I will try, you can count on that.
I have been busy though. I've made several hats, three pair of children's mittens, half a dozen pair of cabled wrist warmers (they are addictive). I lost interest in the Branching Out as soon as I had memorized the pattern. Clapotis still eludes me. I think I'm bored with that too. I've made one sock...in my defense the pair are for dh and he has HUGE 11" long feet. Add in size 1 dpns and that's alot of B-O-R-I-N-G knitting round & round & round & round. Plus the wounds to my fingertips from poking the needle. OUCH. He may get the other one in time for Easter lol.
Here are a couple of pictures of FO's.



These were done with Red Heart (gasp! Acrylic!) Strata. I like it. The striping on the red/green/white/yellow/blue is a bit off. The mittens were a b*tch to make twins. But they are for my boys, who will no doubt get them filthy and maybe even lose them.
That is, if we ever get any snow!

Oh, I love the mittens. I've been making mittens nonstop since it actually got cold here in the NY area but they're all plain knitting. Just finished a glove for my daughter today. I'm in love with it.
