Knitting... Kimmish Knitting... Is there really any more to say?

Nope.. It's Not A Jaywalker.

Actually I haven't even started them yet.. *sigh* I have been abandoned. Left alone to wander the jaywalker sock path by my self. (Yes, April.. I'm trying to guilt you. lol.)

But I do have some other progress instead! YAY!



I finnally got my yarn free, and did try out what I had written out for the Right Front so far. If you look close enough you might be able to see the two out of three button holes I have completed. I think they're pretty good.. Hopefully I can find some nice buttons to go with this thing.. It would be a crime to put soooo much effort into it and then tack on some crappy buttons. lol.

I'm so glad I only need three.

I still have more direction writing to do.. which is why I've stopped knitting where I have. I'm hoping that the effort in writing it all out properly will be useful for someone else.. (Or possibly me.. later.. after I've forgotten everything. lol.) Because I think I could possibly.. maybe.. make it the rest of the way without it.. but it would be a little slower I think.. but then again writing it all out takes lots of time.

I don't know.. but I'd really like to knit on it again soon. It might be a case of writing out a few rows... then knitting them.. then going back to the writing.. but I'm not sure. I don't think I have that many left really..

Oh boy I'm sounding wishy-washy..

Some more good news is that I just earned 10 dollars today for completing an online survey.. which I have offically deemed yarn/knitting money. I believe I will be buying some more KP needles with it.. because I want them so! I'd especially love to have them before I tackle the TCC sleeves.

Tommarrow my dad and I are planning to go hunt down some Homasote so that we can build a blocking board. He said he would do it probably over a year ago and we're just now getting around to it. Hopefully we will also be stopping by Yarns 2 Ewe, which would be really really nice.. I haven't been there in ages. I'm thinking of taking my camera with us so that I can do a photo-blog entry about the trip.. It sounds like a good blogging opportunity to me : )

But we'll see what really ends up happening..

Meanwhile I go back to the grindstone of writing out those Right Front directions. (Note to pattern publishers: I do not like spending money on a pattern only to have to spend my time writing out more coherent directions!!)

The cardigan fronts are looking great! And yes, definitely find some gorgeous buttons. They're hard to find, though!
Jealous that you're getting a blocking board!
That cardigan is so beautiful! I know re-writing directions is a pain, but I think the result will be totally worth it!
well, dear, I've been deathly sick, so even my kids aren't getting any help from me

I think that looks great! Yesterday I finally went out and bought some yarn & needles and have been working on baby blankets for the kittens (who are now 3 days old and as cute as can be).

Hopefully I'll be able to make something a bit larger and more useful by the winter time.
