&%$* camera!
Vivienne dropped my camera a couple weeks ago, and since then there's some problem with the USB connection, so uploading takes multiple attempts. Very annoying.
Anyway, here is a picture of the previously mention "muppet vomit" scarf, which actually is very pretty and soft, the colors just make me think inside-out-muppet:
and, drumroll please...
my first attempt at cabling:
Cabling is easier than I expected! And it feels like knitting alchemy! I'm actually switching yarns and will be knitting myself a PINK Coronet. I want to make some matching mittens, but don't know if I dare attempt to adapt a pattern to add the cabled edge.
I blocked the shoulders to my hoodie last night so I can seam them anytime and add the hood. I hope to accomplish that tomorrow, then maybe seam the rest over the weekend. I'm not loving the colors as much as I originally did, but whatever. Maybe I'll make another one.
I want to make a nice hat & scarf for T, too, and some knitty toys for the kids. Can I do all of this in time for Xmas? Not too likely!
Off to start my pink cabled band!
