I’ve got 3 (THREE) WIP’s (Work In Progress) right now. I love them each in their own special way.<\/p>\n

First we have Jeanie<\/a>. The beautiful cabled-drop-stitch stole from the current Knitty. It’s gotten way more logical since those first ten rows, when I contemplated chucking the entire thing across the room, deterred by the fact some of my favorite stitch markers on the dang thing. (Cupcakes and penguins from Good to Be Girl<\/a>!) It will be de-gorgeous, but that requires me getting back to working on it:<\/p>\n

\"Jeanie<\/a><\/p>\n

Loooove dem cables!<\/p>\n

But then I got distracted. Shiny things off in the ditch. Oooo! Looky, looky! And teetering off I did a-go. <\/p>\n

\"I<\/a><\/p>\n

These are the Very Terhi Wristwarmers<\/a>, from Yarnissima<\/a>. I love them. LOVE THEM. The yarn is Nashua Handknits Julia, in “Coleus”. I am fascinated by the traveling stitches and their progression and logic and order somehow click in my brain, way more than standard cabling does. I love the switchy-switchy. I’ve learned a few things on this, just after the first complete set of rows, and I’ve even done crazy hitchy things like, go back and undo some stitches that were a-travelin’ the wrong way, without undoing everything. These are complex, and I am unable to watch tv as well while working on them. And because both my active projects seem to involve cables, I decided, yes, I need a third project in the air (not counting all those “started yet hibernating” projects) – I cast on for some toe-up socks using ShiBui yarn<\/a>, in the brightest, happiest colorway you could imagine (“Spectrum”). <\/p>\n

\"Shibui<\/a><\/p>\n

I always knit my socks (and apparently, wristwarmers) 2-at-a-time, but when you’re doing toe-up, it just makes sense to make each toe and THEN start sailing along with them on two circs. (Or magic loop.) I was initially thinking these would be my basic, mindless knitting – standard ribbing & whatnot …. but then I caught myself designing something in my head… something involving…. traveling stitches? :) I dunno! We’ll see. I’ve got a ways to go before I have to commit, but I do like the idea of trying something a leetle different. Seems to be in keeping with most things of late.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
