Its a knitting weekend!

Today I worked on my Dianna Entrelac shawl a little bit — I think I’m going to scrap it and try one from the Entre to Entrelac book.

Also worked on the Ribby Cardi a little bit — going to have to redo the front that I did already.  Tara would like me to get this done so she can wear it for fall leave senior pictures.  Don’t.think.that.will.happen!

Worked on my Insouciant sock a bit.  Need to have this ready to cut open at the next class Saturday.

Worked on the new website design and chat group a little bit.  Have a long way to go.

Worked on the Travelling Woman’s Shawl using Dream Club cashmere — LOVELY!  But had to restart because my cast on count was off.

Busy, busy the next couple of nights and days … Sweater Night is for anyone who has a sweater project purchased from Knitting Today. We work on gauge, fit, modifications, stitches, seaming, and whatever else we need to do (sometimes rippit??) to get those sweaters finished! No charge but it is nice to know in advance who is coming and what point they are working on so I’m prepared mentally to multi-task :-).

UFO night is when we all gather and work on whatever project we want to get finished. Sometimes it is something that has been stuck in a closet for twenty years, and sometimes we start something new. I usually try and hand out some door prizes for various surprise contests throughout the night. Sometimes I’ll plan special theme nights or events, but this Friday is all about the UFO (it might even be the finished up of the sweater that needs seamed on Thursday night!).

Saturday morning at 10 is the continuation of the Freedom fair Isle hat that Nancy has been teaching. It is the two-handed fair isle method and also teaches chart reading.

Saturday afternoon at 1 is the continuation of the Insouciant Sock class. Anyone who purchased the book from Knitting Today is entitled to this free class and we have many who are coming back to do another sock from the book. pre-registration is requested, but it is not necessary to have attended the other classes for this particular sock.

Happy knitting every one!!
