Now for some knitting`

So I decided to tackle a hat. my first hat. So on I went to RAvelry and found a great one skein noro swirl pattern. loved it. t hought Id make it for jason...well, tell me, jason, is it girlie????

I mean, I had to frog it. I used my 10circs when i meant to use my 8s because I only have up to 7 dpns, which i need to finish it off. well, you know how it is when you try to knit on a circle thats too damn big...it doesnt work!!!

so i frogged it. im thankful it only took a couple hours....so now i just have to see if jason thinks the colorway is too damn girlie - i think it is - because if he thinks so, im just going to size it down and make it for me. the plan was to originally make him this said hat,m and make a caliometry headband for me, buuuuuuuut....his head is huge...and this is girlie...so i dunno....i need input...

Kitties and projects

So I'm super late posting this all - but I went on vacation. and with my computer down, i have to wait til my sister is at school - but since I work nghts, I'm ususally asleep at that time...oh well.

Well, Jason loved his blanket, and course I forgot to get pics of it.....Which makes me want to scream.

I did a bunch of stuffed hearts this Valentines Day and gave them all to BUG cuz well, she loved them!

Then Mom asked me to make a dishcloth for her boss's birthday before I left town. I went ahead and used a pattern from Cloths of Love since they are so beautiful, and the kind of business they are in. My mother works for the State, as a employment coach for the mentally disabled. Cam, her boss, oversees the whole county. I finished it on Sunday before I left to go to the train, and knitted up a heart in the same color.

Additionally, I taught Jason how to knit!!! I'm so proud of him. He says he isnt sure that it will be his next addiction, but he does like it, and he's awfully damn cute doing it. Notice the cutest little tongue hanging out...

And then there is Dinah. Sweet Sweet doorstep kitty, Dinah - like in Alice in Wonderland. I lov her. I don't know quite where she is right now. I dont hear her so i assume she is sleeping...

Ain't she precious????

i finished something

ok, so i finished the mid month kal from january on the yahoo group, but i made it a little smaller because, well, we dont use them much, and we prefer our dishcloths smaller - since we only wipe tables with them. I know I twisted a row in the middle between the two sets of patterns but I was definately done with this stupid thing....its so soft though. I used S&C - and although i wasnt too pleased with the stranding I got with it, it is a soft yarn...but im dedicated to P&C for sure now!

Additionally, i finished the pattern grid for jason's guitar cloth. well, its a rough one, but i know what it says. (Gote is Jason's nickname). I'm thinking about doing it sideways and striped - like the guitar strap I'm making him. I'm pretty stoked about it. The goal is to ship it to him for VDay. They (http://www.myspace.com/onenighstanmusic) have a show a couple days afterwards, so we will see how it goes...it would be nice to BE THERE for the show and just about everything, but June will come quick enough....i hope....
