Saturday, August 31

Busy week watched my baby boys three this week. Did get some knitting done while they where in school.  Finished the first of two baby dresses last Saturday. Am going to start the second one today. Started a new sweater for me to replace the one I had to get rid of do to wear and tear as well as age.  Have about 7-1/4 inches finished. Have not works on my experimental project I should finish that before starting yet another project, yeah right :) . As soon as I finish the second dress I will concentrate on both my sweaters.

The Friday Knit Club just broke up I am settling in to start yet another project. I am going to make 2 little dresses from the Sproutlette pattern I may 3 one for my daughters little nieces and possibility one for mine.  It just depends on my mood.

I'm almost finished with the back of my slimming sweater.

Finally finished my top in Secondo.  Didn't finish in time for knitting last week, but will get a chance to where it this week.  Will post pictures as soon as it is finishing blocking.

Now on to try an finish my sweater.

Tuesday, August 13

Well I'm almost finished with my top from the Filati Issue 52, Model 16.  I have restated this project at least 6 times. I just finishers the front and am about 3 rows into the back.  Hoping to finish this project by tomorrow. I would love t wear it on Thursday to knitting.  If by Thursday I'm hoping for Friday when the Friday Knit Club meets at my place.

I am also about 3-1/2 inches short of starting armhole shaping on my slimming sweater experiment.

Friday is Here

It has been an extremely long week.  On Monday a dear friend lost her battle with cancer. Then on Tuesday, I found out that my ex passed away, which was more difficult on my daughter than me as she has been trying to have a relationship with the man her entire life without success.  I also found out the he was a bigger a****** than I ever thought.  Wednesday my baby went in for surgery to have her tonsils and adenoids removed.

Haven't done much knitting in the past couple of days. Had a much more important job and that was taking are of my baby while she is recouping from her surgery. I feel so bad with her in pain I want to take the pain away and take it upon myself just so that she wouldn't be so miserable. Trying to keep her babies out of her hair and quite so that mom can rest is another thing.

Well tonight I'm still trying to straighten out the pattern.  I have it in my head I just have to make in work in reality.
