the blue blog archives: 9 days and counting

After Thing One and Thing Two I might just be a little intarsia-ed out*. I made it this far on the front of my weasley...

... before I put it down for a little (well, a LOT) of simple sleeve stockinette.

* Uh-oh, this doesn't bode well for my finishing my long-sleeve nbat, which I put down five or so rows into the intarsia on the front!

That's a lot of intarsia you have going on. I'm highly impressed with your stamina. :)

Wow, almost finished with a sleeve before finishing the front, eh? That says a lot. ;) Considering how Thing 1 and 2 went, I'm putting my vote in for an early finish!

Hey, you integrated comments! Awesome!

Maybe you just need a deadline for the NBAT. Have you ever missed a knitting deadline?

Beautiful color. How do you like knitting and wearing Rowan Felted Tweed? I'm thinking about getting some for a cardigan, also in Ginger!

I love the color you chose, so perfect and appropriate for a Weasley sweater. Can't wait to see it finished.

Your sweater is coming right along. I love the color and I really really want one. Just don't think I am up to intarsia yet....but my hat is coming along :) Can't wait to see the finished sweater.

Your Weasley looks great. What pattern do you use?

Looks great. I can't wait to see the finished project. You always do such an amazing job on these things.

Hi Alison. Have you seen Ron's knitted blanket? I was over on Skrilla's site and she has a photo.
