So last Thursday I cast on for the Back to School U-Neck (or on Ravelry) I’ve wanted to make for awhile:
Super-fast knit! I’m already to the waffle stitch part!
And it’s not like I’ve been doing nothing but work on this… To sum up or weekend: furniture shop, clear out the yard for winter, housewarming party, hangover, Panini’s for the big game (serious bummer right there - good thing my fantasy team won - that takes the edge off of it a little bit), grandparents for Sunday dinner. It was super-busy with not much of the knitting.
And yet somehow I’m already halfway done:
I think this proves that if I concentrate on one project and don’t let the malabrigio distract me I can make noticeable progress. Funny that.
Anyways now that I’ve said it’s a quick knit I have a feeling the rest of it is going to take for-ev-er… especially since I plan on adding short row bust shaping in addition to the vertical darts in the front. I have no idea how this is going to work with the waffle pattern but can’t be that hard to work around b/c 2 of the 3 rows are just knit. There’s got to be a way to do it…
Think there is any chance of me finishing by Thanksgiving?
What a gorgeous shade of blue! You are so fast, you speed demon!
ReplyDeleteLOL - I don't necessarily miss being a browns fan! Though I still have to be one by birthright and/or default. That said, it's not like the Broncos are doing all that great either!
ReplyDeleteI find the knitting fascinating and whether you get done by Turkey Day - um, sure why not? ;-)
It looks like you have a great chance to finish it by Thanksgiving. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteNicely done!! Very pretty color.
ReplyDeleteOH yeah you can do it! you are more than halfway done already!
ReplyDeleteHey if you need help, Tammy andrea and I are going to be be at Caribou in Avon Commons on thurs evening for knitting, come anytime after 4 (I'll be there between 5 and 6) You can get a couple more hours of knitting in!!
Very nice! That is on my list to knit next from that book!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear it is a fast knit!
It will continue to fly off your needles! :o)
I see you are on a purple kick too! What yarn is that?
Pretty! Purple!
ReplyDeleteI'm dying to make a nice cabled vest, which is odd, because I have never liked vests.
What a lovely colour! Hmmm... I may have to make one too!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! I love the color. That pattern is on my list too.
ReplyDeleteLove that yarn! Can't wait to see it finished!
