One Finished, One Still In Progess

Turn a Square needs to be blocked.



It didn't come out as well as I would have liked. I will make another and hope to do a better job. The square on top is very cool!

The first sweater I am making for myself is coming along. There's lots of shaping in it and I'm not sure if I'm doing it right.


Lots of pain today and school starts. We'll see how the day goes.

Now on the Needles

The projects I was going to make, Arwen and A cardigan for Merry, are taking a back seat for now. My daughter and I have to figure out the reversible cable.

I'm making another Turn a Square.



This time I'm making it with strips and the square will show up on the crown of the hat.
The main yarn is Cascade 220 Tweed and the strips are Debbie Bliss Donegal Aran Tweed.

The other project on the needles is Amy Swenson's Emerald cardigan on Knitty.



This is the first sweater I'm making for myself. The yarn is Andes by Elizabeth Austen that I purchased a while ago on sale at six-n-stitches.I can't pass up a good sale, even if I don't have a project for the yarn. This time it worked out. I have more than enough yarn to my this sweater.
