Hey kids,

So, I have been knitting very spuratically lately. I am rather intrigued by my wedding shawl I am knitting. http://secure.elann.com/ShowFreePattern.asp?Id=127024 I have never knitted lace before... if you consider this motif 'lace'. Here is what I have so far. This is just one repeat of the pattern. I added one more repeat so it is a large shawl.


I have also been working... slowly... on Andy's fish afghan. I have 9 grey fish knitted and 2 black knitted.
I need 9 more grey, 10 more black and 18 white fishes to complete the blanket. Take a look at a couple pix of the fishies. Note: each one of those fish are 13 inches long.




Now I have it in my head that I want to knit or crochet a spring/summer purse. gah.

I am also going to participate in a Knit Socks! knit along. It starts June 1 and I totally cant wait. I am going to see if I can knit the socks in 2 days! neat challenge for me. I am on vacation all week and I can knit all day thurs and friday. weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. be neat to see if i can do it. :)


well, its midnight, better get to bed.

So, I've been working on the knitted fish for the Fish Blanket I am making for Andy. It feels like an eternity!! I want to start making other things SOOOO bad! But, I have to stick with this. I need to get it done in a good amount of time and not let it rot in a rubbermaid box for a year before I finish it. 20% done. Not too shabby for an A.D.D. knitter. :D


I have been slowly unraveling the ugly crocheted blanket I started. Almost done. I want to recycle that yarn to make another, more attractive, crocheted throw.


It's like midnight, i need sleep.
