More progress!
I know it's been two weeks since my last update, but hey, it's better than four months isn't it? That's what I thought. The last time I updated, I had started my first sleeve. At this point, both sleeves are done, and I've joined them to to body. I'm so close to being done, but now I'm reaching the burn out point. I want to take a little break and start my lace shawl, but don't know if I should or not.
Here is what we have at the moment.
This is the back.
This is a close up of the steek stitches. The round now begins in the center of the steek so I don't have to weave those ends in! Woohoo!
I finally finished up the Blue Streak batt I got from the Art Club Batt Club. I decided on a one ply laceweight to get maximum yardage from the 2.5 oz batt. I ended up with about 800 yards so I'm content.
Note: it's hard to see the sparkle in the picture.
I also overdyed my yarn spun from Abby's batts. The color in reality is not quite as similar to the Blue Streak.
Stacey's knitting is coming along well. She's finished her second scarf. Stacey, how do you like your scarf and knitting in general.
Look at that! She's so happy, she has jazz hands! (And I am going to get my butt kicked for posting this picture.)
She also took a picture of her boyfriend Mike modeling the scarf.
I'll post more soon. I'm on jury duty for two weeks so here's hoping I get called in and dismissed early so I can knit more!
