I’m still alive
I’ve been knitting.
I completed my Jaywalkers, but haven’t posted the photos I took yet. (Been too lazy to resize and upload them.) I think they came out just slightly too long in the foot, but there’s not a chance in hell I’m ripping back to fix them. I love them and have worn them, but now I’m faced with the “OMG I HAVE TO WASH THESE!” issue. I don’t know where my label is, but I know it’s Lorna’s Laces. I don’t want to throw them in the washing machine and have them felt even a little, but I’ve no idea how to hand wash them!
As for my mom’s sweater? It’s sewn together!! I completed the last sleve late Saturday night and was able to sew it together yesterday. Now I just have the collar and button bands and I’ll be D-O-N-E! The button bands should take hardly any time at all and I don’t think the collar will either. I’m going to be knitting like mad this week to complete it before Mother’s Day this coming Sunday.
I started another pair of socks. The Pomatomus socks from Knitty. They haven’t seen too much progress due to all that work on my mom’s sweater, but once that is done, I’ll just have those socks to work on! Well, I have the pullover I’m creating, but hasn’t seen much progress. I’m considering starting Rogue finally once that sweater is done. We’ll see.
Next post, I promise to have photos of my Jaywalkers.
