Yarn Along: One Pink "Fweater"
/Pardon me, please. I'm a little late to the Yarn Along.
I was knitting.
Elizabeth teased me last week that I had my first UFO (Unfinished Object). Indeed, I had casted on for Katie's shrug before finishing Sarah's.
But only because I didn't know how to finish Sarah's.
I definitely don't think I will be the UFO type. I'm all into finishing. Like stay up until midnight and get up a 5 AM to finish finishing. So, this week, Sarah's "fweet fweater" is finished.
{Come here, Baby Bedhead, see what Mama has for your morning surprise.}
And Katie's is completed all except a few more easy rows of length and the ruffle.
{{{And blocking and buttons (but I don't know how to do those yet and I've lost the buttons somewhere in the van).}}}
The goal is to finish all by Friday, when I expect the mailman will deliver yarn for Karoline's striped shrug. I don't want to start something new until I finish these.
We're reading lots of knitting-and-wool-related picture books. I cleared out the glass-fronted cabinet in the family room and installed our yarn (a shelf for me and a shelf for the girls), a basket of needles and such, and these lovelies:
Phoebe's Sweater (for more on Phoebe, don't miss this interview and Phoebe Mouse's blog)
and these for next week:
