3 sweaters
alright, maybe i am an over-achiever, or maybe a multi-tasker, I may possibly have OCD or what's the one when you can't focus on only one thing at a time, oh yeah...ADD. Whatever the diagnosis...I am working on 3 sweaters these right now. I was teaching a sweater class this winter and at the time I was making lots and lots of hats to sell in my friend John Bell's shop. As soon as the class was over, I decided to make a sweater. I was so excited about that idea that I found three that I wanted to make. one is for my mom. It's Wicked from www.zephyrstyle.com
Then I decided to make one for me. it's the cabled riding jacket from Loop-d-loop. That one is really hard at the bodice section because you have to do so many different things on so many different rows, so I can only work on this one when I am alone and no one is talking to me.
then I got a deal on some nice rowan yarn, and it was the exact yarn that fit a pattern that jaman had shown some interest in so I had to start him one too. I didn't want the poor guy to feel left out and he needs a new hand-made sweater. it's called the herringbone jacket from the book knitting for him.

no, it's not that I don't know how to post pictures...oh blah blah, it's just that i don't always have the stuff I need close at hand and crap like that.
see! I know how, it's just that I don't have the hook up from the camera to the computer or the pictures that are on Jaman's computer on this computer. big problems going on in the world. I am sure I will figure all of this out. but the big things that I want to talk about are the fact that there is a whole lot of knitting going on in my life these days. I have started the cabled riding jacket out of loop-d-loop and am almost at the bodice but after i finish the waist, i have to start on some obligatory projects like a mohawk hat this lady is purchasing from me for her grandson and some slippers for gifts that need to be done in a week, I can not disclose the names for whom the slippers will belong until a week from today. once I finish those things, I have to make a hat for my friend karin's boy friend who is very sweet and has been wonderful and supportive and fabulous to her and deserves a hat. I already got the yarn for it, i am thinking of the pattern in my head. Then I will go back to my beloved cabled riding jacket.

Wow, it's been a long time since I've posted. Part of the reason is that I don't know how to post pictures. Oh, could that little photo icon top right have something to do with it? I swear they didn't have that before and no one would help me. Guess I'll have to do it all by myself. Do you feel sorry for me yet? ... That wasn't so bad. This is a creative commons-licensed photo. I'll update soon with the photographer's name, etc.
This was just a test.

I'm back
Okay,
I am back. I just need to get the picture thing going. I now live in Arkansas and manage a yarn shop called the Handworks Gallery. I just found out that I passed my Arkansas state board for massage exam and will now be lisenced in Arkansas! yahoo, now I can knit, massage and farm! My three favorite things. Everything is looking up these days.
Lately I am working on about a million projects. We have a group knitting project that I am working on some squares for. I am almost done with that. I am almost done with a sweater back. The half dollar cardigan from the new interweave Knits. I finished one entrelac sock and on to the next. what else...I am knitting a blanket for a woman who hurt her hands knitting it, she is paying me. I am looking forward to getting these obligitory knits done so I can get on with my own creative stuff. Seems like I am always saying that. More later, Heather
