MIAMI!!!

Well I haven't blogged for a while cause I am visiting my grandparents in Miami and I am having so much fun! I did bring knitting(The Nantucket Jacket) but I havent knitted at all on it. The problem is that it is not mindless knitting so I cant do much else while I'm knitting. I am reading my daily knitting blogs, but because it is summer no one is really posting. I get back on Sunday so you can expect a post then with pictures. Later!!!

Thursday

Sorry about the boring title but I could not think of anything else. Some knitting has been done. I am knitting another Isabeau Purse in a beautiful turquoise color. Sorry, but I dont have pictures. Thats about it. More knitting tomorrow.

Knitting!

Finally a knitting post. Lots of knitting has been started, some ripped, and some completed. My favorite almost completed object is the Isabeau Purse. It has been blocked and all it needs is a lining which my mom will sew on and a closing button which is put on after the lining. It is actually pink but I was photographing during the evening under artificial light so it looks red.





The first photo is a digitally altered pic of the bag so you can sort of see the stitch pattern. The second pic is the best picture of the whole bag.

I used the Sugar and cream Cotton in a very pink colorway with size 8 USA neddles. It took me a day to knit and a day to sew up. I have knit this pattern once before and I highly recomend it.

My biggest ripped pattern is all of the Bell Sleeve Sweater. I measures it and mine was 4 inches wider than it was supposed to be! So I ripped out both sleeves and part of the back. I have now knit a gauge swatch and am looking for a suitable pattern.

The last thing I'm knitting is the Elegant Wrap from Patons Designs. I unfortunetely I do not have pics but you will see some soon.

Come back for more knitting tomorrow!
