the blue blog archives: when did this happen?

I've had no time for knitting things for myself these days, what with those socks to finish and design projects taking over all my free time. So, I don't really know how I managed to finish the front of the purple t-shirt sweater. A half hour stolen here and there really does add up, I guess.

Poor neglected purpley sweater. (Poor neglected barely begun pink eyelet sweater. Poor neglected unstarted baby geek sweater. Poor neglected unfinished hubby sweater. Poor neglected hurting my hand afghan squares.) The continental projects still have the advantage in the battle for my attention though, so expect to see more of the purple sweater as time permits!

I got my socks from Sue yesterday. They're great, but I don't have an email for her to send a thank you. I'm dropping my package at the post office this morning on the way to the airport.

Great T-shirt shapely sweater, and you go girl, you finish projects for yourself. We knitters too often knit for others, and we are left barren children with no hand made items to wear.

Always fun to see what you've whipped up!

It looks close to finish from my point of view.

Hi, what a great sweater! Can't wait to see it done.
I got my sockpal package, and they're lovely. I can't wait to do this again! Thanks for organizing it.

LOL! I work on stuff until I screw up and it makes me mad. Then I put it in "time-out" for a couple weeks so that I can cool off and work on something else in the mean while. It seems to be working for me. I might actually finish a sock any day now!

I was trying to update the Sockpal database thingie for mailing of socks, but it isn't sending me the link for updating.

Mine are going out tout suit!
