Dog-Nephew is gonna get another sweater

  • Mar. 5th, 2008 at 8:23 AM

Well, I am pleased with how the second sweater that I am knitting for my dog-nephew is turning out. Will post a photo soon. The yarn is J.C. Brett in Marble which will look really cute. Stay tuned. We had a huge dump of snow last night so it is a good knitting day.

Finished Purple ONLine socks

I finished these socks and absolutely love the way the yarn knits up. I could have finished them faster however had to do some frogging around the heel on one of them. The yarn was bought at the Purple Purl in the Beach in Toronto.

I am thrilled to announce that I have received my first badge, the McGuyver Badge (Level 1), from http://www.cast-on.com/?page_id=123

This badge is awarded to a knitter who has demonstrated clever use of a non-knitting tool in a knitting-related scenario. For instance, recipient has used paper clips as stitch markers, or successfully whittled and then utilized bamboo skewers as dpns.

Gotta get help with my dog sweater. I have to pick up stitches for the sleeves but this is proving to be very difficult. Yikes.

 Well, it's New Year's Day but last night I watched Shrek 2, ate hot hors d'oeurves, drank wine and worked on my dog-nephew's Sweater. We had fireworks in town which were visible from upstairs master bedroom. They were quite beautiful. It was very festive. Both my beloved husband and I were beddy-bye and snoozers at midnight and that's the way I like it!!

Two days before Christmas

It has been very busy the past two weeks. We went on a Caribbean cruise and then landed back in the middle of all the Christmas busyness. It has been fun. Alas, I have not had any time to work on my dog-nephew's sweater. I have more Christmas cooking, baking, preparing to do but maybe this afternoon.

socks, Cat
I am having a hard time making the mate to the sock that I knitted last year. Problem is I forgot which size needles I knitted them on and now have to try different sizes out. Pretty silly eh? Oh well, eventually I will stumble on the right size.

I got my Ravelry invite yesterday!

I am so excited. I got my Ravelry invite yesterday and am looking forward to using all the neat features. The wait wasn't really that long. The Waiting List Checker with the alpaca was pretty cute and a nice touch!
