Hump Day

Husband is finally home from hospital.  However, my knitting is not progressive much. I had the entire bottom section and upper section of shell finished, but did not like the way it was looking so I not only frogged the bottom part, but the top part as well. I was almost finished with the entire shell.

Very Long Weekend

Didn't get much knitting done, as i spent most of my weekend in the hospital with my husbands who either suffered another stroke a seizure.  I knitted and frogged the same 14 rows at least 6 times. I finally had to put t he knitting away as i was getting no where literally.

Slow Going

The Progress on my  shell is slow going as I was trying to do 4 sizes at the same time, until this morning a light bulb went on and I realized to do one size and then just for the smaller/larger sizes after i finish ah dah :).

Now that I know this little tidbit I am making better progress, almost finished with the diamond/cable lace panel. I also figure once I'm finished the the diamond/cable pattern the rest of the shell will be a breeze.

New Design

         I started a new design today. It will be a shell with a diamond lace center panel which I will on the horizontal. with st. st. above and below. Most of this project is still in the planning stage, in other words in my head.

Bamboozle Shrug

            

This shrug is worked from cuff to cuff. you start with the left cuff and work the entire shrug until you almost reach desired length of the right sleeve. At this point you place the stitched on a holder and for the lace cuff of the right sleeve. The cuff is then grafted to the shrug.  The lace  around the neck, fronts and lower edging is added by knitting the edging and attaching it to the body every other row.

Long Day

It's been a while since I posted anything. Have been busy with new grandson, who is now 10 months, and his big brother.

I have done quite a bit of knitting over the past few months. I have finished

HMS08

MysticStar.

It's been a busy day. It was my husband's birthday had my daughter and family over for knitting as well as her in-laws. We all had a great time, playing with the boys, catching up on family stuff.

Although with all the visiting and entertaining didn't leave much room for knitting. I did manage to finish clue 3 on mystery shawl 12, but was not able to do any work on mystic roses clue 1. Hopefully tomorrow, I will have more time.

The huricane that is my kitchen is waiting for me to finish cleaning (the down side of entertaining). Well if I want to get any knitting done before bedtime, I should go and clean my kitchen.

Graduation Day Approaches

My daughter's graduation from nursing in on Saturday. I'm so glad for her. She has been waiting for this day for three years. It's been hard on her, with two little boys and all.

Well on another note, I have finished my Branching Rib Pullover from Creative Knitting January 2006 issue. I also finished Mystery Shawl 10.

I am currently working on Mystic Light as Christmas gift which I have to finish by Monday.
