Yeah, um, been a while hasn't it?

OK, so I haven't been as good as I thought I would be with this whole blogging thing. I am going to give it another go.

What have I been making with pointy sticks since September? Honestly, not a lot that's gotten finished. I do have a great number of UFOs on the needles, or in various stages of disarray. So, consider this installment 1 of the great January 08 catch-up-post.

That scarf I had planned to give my dad for xmas. No picture, because I am still working on it...and just in case he happens upon this blog…

About two weeks before xmas I decided that it was a great pattern, but that so many color changes (and so many places to makes mistakes) made it evil...I forced it into a time out until I hate it a little less.



So instead…I started the PI shawl from EZ's knitter's almanac. I am making it out of Knitpicks Alpaca Cloud in iris heather. I've never tried lace before; so of course I decided to do the more complex version. I may have to start it over, but so far it's pretty, and I don’t hate it yet.

Coming up next post, adventures in socks. Stay tuned.
