A Knitting Affair

The color is so much better than my original pictures. 4 of the 6 squares I have completed for Lizard Ridge.

Up next, stash enhancement from Freckle Face Fibers.

I know that they are similar. I have one other that I thought I had taken pictures of but obviously I didn’t. There was a reason for them being similar. I will spin them up to do some sort of shawl.

Well the first good news is that my step-dad’s checkup went well (inoperable lung tumor). Its always stressful/worrisome when it comes time to the checkup but this is super news.

As for knitting – I am almost done square 3, am halfway done lady feb and am spinning a bit each week.

And here is some cuteness:

Knitting (I put this first in case you don’t want to read the personal content)

Lady February – I am now on the lace part of the sweater. The garter seemed to go on forever for some reason but the lace pattern is so easy to do and it is coming along quite nicely. Perhaps the garter felt like it went on forever because I had to rip it out and restart on US7’s rather than the US6’s I was using.

Wedding Blanket – (aka Lizard Ridge) is starting to come along. I am almost done my first block. If in September I can knit 1.25 squares a day I will have it done before October 1 and then have time to put it together. I know 1.25 blocks a day is not going to happen, but I think that I can do a block in 2-3 hours. So weekend knitting time is dedicated to that.

Car Knitting – I am currently working on a garter scarf. Basic. Easy. No Brainer.

Ravelympics – I finished two cowls. I had high hopes of doing more, but with it being summer and us always being at the Polo Field my knitting time was drastically reduced.

As for Spinning – I have a few one night stands lined up.

Since I will be watching the 90210 season premiere, I think that Brandon will be my choice for that night.
