been cheating

I've been working on so many other things over the last few days, I feel like I've been unfaithful to my knitting! Most of my free time has been spent on the website renovation - redesigning and updating all the pages and moving them over to the new site.

I have been surfing and reading lots of blogs though. This really is an awesome group (great job, Ivete!). I'm way impressed with shobanista's new iro shell and really want to make something with vertical stripes now. I've got a ton of Rowan Cotton Glace that I've been collecting for a while for some kick-ass stripeyness and just hadn't decided exactly what sort of pattern to use. I think I've made up my mind now! I also just love the new sweater wendy is working on. I can't wait to see how it turns out. If I didn't already have a crazy Starmore project on the needles, I'd be mighty tempted! And of course Knitty is fabulous. The vegan fox is the coolest. I would love to make it, but don't think I could carry off wearing it. I'm looking forward to the gallery section so I can see what everyone makes. Neat idea!

Back in non-virtual knitting, I did manage to turn the heel on the second stripey baby sock while at knitting group on Sunday and yesterday began to knit the ears for the bear hat. But I just haven't worked up the energy to pick up Elizabeth I(II) and start knitting again. I've promised myself and my knitting bag that I'll make some quality time for knitting tonight!
