the blue blog archives: r2 part deux

I've seen the previews of the new Rowan magazine and am anxiously awaiting its arrival. Until then, I've got my R2 tank to keep me happy. I've just begun the back (don't know why, but I did the front first).

I've got another ball of the yarn on its way to me from The Knitting Garden and Jenn gave me some leftovers from her paper hoodie, so barring any unforeseen difficulties, I could have this tank done for the weekend! Especially if B keeps helping me.

Oh look at him! How adorable is that? he is even holding the needles pretty well. I bet he will be doing pockets for you pretty soon. Just teach him to wind balls and sew in ends and you will have it made.

hi there, just wanted to tell you how impressed i am with all of your projects. you inspired me to do multiple projects at once, a very complicated louet sweater, a cool cashmere scarf, and a felted bag. i might just have to keep adding. i guess you'd say i'm a fan. i have 3 kids and i work, and all i'd really like to do is knit!
thanks for being so passionate, i'm reading!

"Hep us?" looks like it's turned into "Hep you?" :)

How adorable he is!! He's going to be a great knitter when he gets older. ;)

How's your Pooling Reds coming? I started mine this morning... Fun... a little weird, but fun.
