Knitting Olympics

I'M DONE

I finished at 9:50 p.m. EST on 2/16/2010

 

Granted this picture is of Gizmo's coat on a cat (what a travesty), but I didn't have a dog to put it on.  I was able to put it on Gizmo last night and it looked good.   His owner's loved it too.  I used Berroco Comfort Chunky in a red and Cream color and US 7 needles to get Gauge.   The pattern I used is here.

New Knitting Group

I have found a new knitting group.  New to me that is.  I definitely will not be going back to the one I was going to on Saturdays any more now.  There are multiple reasons I like this new group.

1. It's closer to home.
2. I don't have to put up with a certain someone from the Saturday group.
3. It's on Sunday which fits by schedule better.
4. It's at an alpaca farm.  Besides that it's a yarn store & coffee shop.
5. There's some really cool people there.
6. I don't have to get up early in the morning to go.

I can't wait for next Sunday already.

New Thing #5

New Thing:  Knitting Olympics & Ravelympics

I've signed-up and am participating in the Knitting Olympics & Ravelympics.  This post shows the  yarn and a pic of the pattern of the project I'm going to be working on.  It's the Garter Stitch Dog Jacket over on Submissive Knitting.  It's for my neighbor's little doggie.

This pic is showing the yarn and pattern for my Knitting Olympics and Ravelympics project. It's a dog sweater. I can't wait to start. The start time for my area is 9 p.m. Friday the 12th.

New Things

I haven't forgotten about doing New things.  My schedule has just been so hectic I haven't had a chance to work on any.
