the blue blog archives: it's all good

Keeping on track for my Herculean Effort at finishing four projects during the Olympics, I hereby annouce the triumphant return of ava!

Remember how wrong she went a while back? Well, I ripped and reknit the first sleeve, finished the second sleeve, sewed them both in, slipped them on and they're just right now. I've got button bands and buttons left to do and she's all done. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can...

Ooh! Calmer all knit. I am so glad we traded because that yarn would have sat in balls forever in my craft rooms. Ava looks so pretty!

I continue to marvel at your prodigious output! A true Knitting Olympian! (and the sweater looks great too :-) )

Ava just looks wonderful. Are you going to do the embroidery as well? I'm almost finished with my Audrey and now I'm searching for another Calmer project. It's not an addiction really, I could stop any time I want to, really I could.

Can you add me to the Pool A-long?? I just ordered my Anne today so hopefully it is here by the end of the week. I really don't need another WIP but this one was too cool to pass up!! Thanks!!

Just saw the cashmere baby hat you sent Kerrie. It looks so soft and cuddly. What a doll you are?
Can you share what book or company you made the pattern from? Thanks.

Now if you only had your own orchestra to play the NBC Olympics song while you knit...
