Actual Knitting

With most of the house stress gone, it's time to concentrate on knitting. I made my first increase row in the ribbing of Something Red. Not sure about my M1's since the seem to have left a little hole. I have continued on anyway, thinking that it may just work itself out.
The Seahawk socks are moving along too. I am at the heel flap. Beacuse of the huge size of these, I cannot knit 2 at the same time so I am hoping SSS doesn't hit. Hubby like them though and is excited to wear them this fall.

I have had to oddest projects interest my lately. The Loopy Pillow from the SnB calendar ( and I think, SnB Nation) caught my eye. What a great way to use my Lamb's Pride scraps. I just don't know where I would put it when I finished. I also have an urge to knit baby clothes. My SIL in preggers and I have been eagerly waiting for her to find our the sex so I can start knitting a baby kimono and the bolero from One Skein. If she is having a boy, it seems the options are a little less.


That is all the knitting news for now. Our house inspection in Friday! Three more week until we move. God, I need to start packing again...

  • Hi! Are you knitting through the back loop on the M1's? I too had that problem, but ktbl helped.. I love the colors of the socks! If you have an extra pair of needles in that size, try C/O if you can for the 2nd pair..then that way they are started. It sometimes helps for me ;)

    For a cute, fairly quick I think (I'll let you know I plan on making a few of these!) I was thinking a baby bolero and these cute little pants.

  • I know what you mean about make ones. In a fit of knitterly geekiness one afternoon I went through the vogue knitting bible, and knitting from the top down trying all the options. Now I generally tend toward picking up from the row below to avoid holiness.
