Bowing to pressure

So, yeah not so much with the updating here, eh? It's not that there's been no knitting, in fact there's been quite a lot. It's the lack of pictures that's the problem. Someday I'll figure out the techmologies enough that I can take my own pictures, however, today is not that day. So, you'll have to settle for what I can yank off the interwebs.

The most recent thing off the needles is a Knitting Pure and Simple's wrap cardigan.I used Lorna's Laces Shepherd Worsted in Black Purl and it's looking pretty good if I do say so myself.





















Also off the needles (finally) is the Rectangular Shawl. It still needs the crochet edging, I think I might need to get some help with that though.


Another FO is a Chevron Scarf, the pattern's from Last-Minute Knitted Gifts, by Joelle Hoverson. It's a nice pattern and a fairly easy knit but, I'd have to say, waiting to the actual last minute to knit this one would be a mistake. Four balls of fingering-weight yarn on 3.75mm needles does not, IMNSHO, a quick knit make. I don't have any pictures of my version, but here are a lot of wonderful ones.


There are more FOs, but I think I've pushed my luck w/the whole techmology thing today (only managed to delete something unintentionally once this time). So, I think I'll leave the rest for another day. Who knows, maybe by the next time I update I'll actually have figured out the picture thing.

See, bowing to pressure ain't so bad!! Nice to see some words and next time we'll teach you the graphics!! Love the ideas though and let me know if you want a hand with the edging on the shawl!!

The worst part about blogging is getting wonderful ideas when I am nowhere close to a computer. By the time the computer is available, the idea is gone or feels really dated. Almost annoying enough to delete the whole blog!

Hey! Tell me all about that luscious ball of purple yarny goodness. I am seriously coveting that yarn...
