“to dye for” finally finished!!

Froggin’ the shawl

Sadly, sadly I realized that my pattern for the antique red shawl wasn’t going to be large enough. Damn you guage calcualtion!

But it will work out alright, I think bottom up for this shawl will work better anyway. Don’t know what detail I am going to do on it but it will be boring old garter stitch for the body of it.

I also had a productive Sat night. I actually finished the mohair sweater. It’s from the stitch n bitch book but I can’t recall the name…to dye for…that’s it!~

I didn’t dye it myself cuz I loved the colors in the mohair I had. But oh am I excited to wear it! yay!

 

 

Organized at last! All my additional yarn storage in the garage.

Saturday spring cleaning

Whew! Today was the day George forced me to get control over my yarn storage in the garage. Funny how I was done over an hour ago &  he is still cleaning up his own tools! ;p

Of course a picture of my clean set up is included below. As well as my mom’s poncho that I completed last night. Yay!

Now I just have to prioritize the rest of my projects to get them done. whew, that makes me breathe hard just thinking about it!

What a loser am I that I have not attended one stitch n bitch meeting of our local Santa Barbara group. As soon as Tracy, my bf, is here I think I will be motivated to be social. As it is the 4 in my fam to keep me company is more than enough.

l8r sK8r’s!

basket stash of started projects by my chair

These projects are all the ones I have waiting in the wings. My yarn all goes through many stages. The new yarn stage, the “oh I know what I can use you for” stage, the “here are the needles to match you & the pattern” stage, then they make it into the big box basket, then get started & into the current project basket. Whew! My poor yarn!
