I'm just back from joining the Twisted knitters KAL. Oh what have I gotten myself into? I'm not a deadline sort of girl but the idea of dyeing along with all those other addicted people is appealing. I have some white roving from Brown's Mill ends farm just waiting for a focused moment to get up off my duff and get the dyepots going. I'm thinking of trying microwaving cause it sounds painless. Wish me luck. If success is my friend I'll post pictures. In the meantime I'm going to work on getting a button on this blog.

I just had to post this even though the deadline's long gone. I just kept plugging away while watching those Oranginas and SWCs grow. I loved making this and since the weather just turned really sticky and hot the timing is perfect! I figure I'm probably not the only one who knits like a turtle! I used Cathay but I'm not sure of the name of the color. The only modification I made was to do 2 more sets of decreases which considering my stomach was empty at the time may not have been such a good idea! We'll see after the first wash. It was great knitting along with y'all.

The day is here! I've waited and planned and poured over the directions a million times it seems. How could I not be ready? I think of those as yet unfinished Christmas presents waiting in various stages of undoness and wonder, Dare I start another? Probably!
