When I was admitted to the hospital I had about 20 rows (decreasing rows) to go on my Cha Feel Shawl, but this visit to the hospital was just not the time for knitting, Last Tuesday, after I was home I picked it up and had it finished with ends woven in and single crochet trim in about an hour and a half. I start Boo Knits Changeling Shawl and had Tom pick me up some cheap yarn in oranges for a bird per the request of my 13 year old granddaughter Gwen. (I still have Madison shawl, Morticia Shawl and a table runner on the needles but.............). Since then I have knit a little bit every day. I have half a wing and two feet to make for the bird, Quite a bit on the Changeling but I am already eyeballing a few other projects too. And I am woefully behind on my Charity hats, I don't think I have ever slipped up like this on my charity commitments.
Here are some photos----remember the shawl isn't blocked yet, that will take Master Blocker's doing, so only he and God know when.
What are you knitting??
KNIT ON!
Glad you're knitting!! That implies you are on the mend in my head. Don't worry about "commitment knitting" now - you need recovery knitting time! Once you're well - I have every confidence you will catch up!
ReplyDeleteJust stopping in for my usual butt kicking in knitting....lol. You're recovering and knitting "REAL" patterns.
ReplyDeleteWhat am I knitting? A two-needle hat....the pattern from World Vision. 54 st. K1P1 for 10 rows then St st for 6-1/2 inches. gather and sew. Voila'. Red Heart GumDrop and Caron Simply Soft. woot. I going to try to put it on a circular, those purl rows give me a pinch, even though I pick instead of throw.
On a better note, so I had stored my yarn and extra fabric in wire grids that snap together into cubes, a total of 12 cubes on the wall. One came unsnapped. As I was fixing, two more unsnapped....no big....
then the whole mess came down like dominoes. The cats found it quite amusing.
My yarnoire is now a plastic utility shelf with storage tubs.
