May 11th 2007 Hello blogland! I’m back with knitting news as well as a new layout. Isn’t this such a pretty
layout? This layout is from Ameagari Designs, Sydney has so many cute
layouts there, it was hard for me to decide which one to download. If things don’t look right, I apologize, this new
layout is going to be an all day project today- getting all the html and files in order.
Operation: Major Frog (see entry #013) has been a huge success! Out of the seven projects that were frogged five
are 100% complete, one is 75% complete (I ran out of yarn- *cough*Ihatemytension*couch*), and one has yet to be started.
So getting those projects done/worked on is something I feel great about. Since this was such a big undertaking, I did
a few “instant gratification” projects inbetween the big ones. Two of the projects were not going to be reknit, so they
are complete (in their balls).
The first project I finished was Eva. Here’s the before and after:
Next up, the Knit.1 Magazine “Cardigan”:
Then I did the Razor Cami. Honestly, I’m not sure how I feel about it… I think I made it a bit too big. Any
comments would be appreciated! (*please!* I’m fully ready to refrogg and reknit this smaller):
Here’s how the Interweave Knits “Not-A-Shrug” is coming along:
The Thigh-High Leg Warmers have yet to be started. I actually haven’t seem this yarn since I frogged the project
and am too lazy to search for it… I live in a desert, so partially wool legwarmers is not something I’m getting
excited about at the moment.
As for my fun inbetween projects, I made Monica for my
Sister-in-laws baby. Then there’s my Cat Hat from the Stitch and Bitch book:

OH! How could I forget! The Vouge Knitting “Braided Scarf” is finished! I <3 it so much:

Wow! That’s a lot of knitting in two months!
