Bad blogger!

Sorry, I am a REALLY bad blogger!

I have just not really thought about updating this thing for quite awhile. I have been knitting up a storm though.

I made a sunny yellow baby cardigan, a pair of baby socks, 1 1/2 Pomotamus socks. I finished the Inside Out socks too. I know there is a few more things that I have done, but I can't think of them.

I am working on a shrug for my daughter. I frogged her old shrug and am redoing it in a larger size and a different pattern. She loved the old one, and was mad because she couldn't fit into it anymore. So I spent an entire evening undoing the old one. Let me tell you that it is hard to undo a garment that has been washed a few times, is overused by a girl who loves to crawl and lay around on the floor, and is made out of a VERY fuzzy yarn. Thank the Gods that it was something that doesn't felt.

I am using a knit stitch called waterfall. It's really easy and only has 6 rows and 9 stitches. I couldn't bring myself to do a plain stitch. I mean, really, I am already making a plain rectangle. I don't think I could pay myself enough to have it that boring.

I went completely insane buying sock yarns. I bought a bunch from Lime 'n Violet (4 skeins), 9 skeins from Astrid's Dutch Obsession, and 10 skeins from Blue Moon Fiber Arts. This is on top of the 2 sock clubs I am in (Blue Moon Fiber Arts and Mama Llama's Sock Clubs).

Then, I found out that my aunt is no longer living in Michigan, so... the sweater I started for her won't work anymore. There is no need for a heavy wool sweater in Florida. I guess I will frog that, and figure out what to do with the yarn later. I was making this for her for Christmas. Now I have to start all over. I will still maker her a sweater, but this one will be done in CottonEase, and will not be so heavy.

I am going to start on my holiday knitting as soon as my last order of Socks That Rock (STR) comes in. I just HAD TO HAVE more of the Silkie Socks that Rock.

I will have to empty my camera's memory card so that I can take more pictures of all these things. Right now it's full, and I need to save those photos. What I really need to do is buy a larger memory card. I still only have a 16MB card.

Well, school is almost out. Their last day is June 6.
