Despite me running the streets some ;op I have clicked my needles just a little teeny weeny bit.
I finished up the I.O.U. booties and finally did my 1st Pay It Forward project!! :o)
You all are familiar with this knit! I only cranked out 3,826 of these! LOL ;op And I still need to make one for me!!
My BeFF Patrice was one of the recipients I wanted to PIF to back in September!!!!! ;op She blogged about getting her beat up package from me here. Haha!
And I was happy that she can still wear it in cold St. Louis before the winter moves out! Yah!
What else can I say differently about this one?? All the details have already been discussed here. :o)
This one is in Malabrigo (of course!) - Autumn Forest colorway....really like this color too!
Although, the more I knit them the faster I get! It literally only took me about 2.5 hours from CO to finishing details to complete this scarf. Did it in one night while watching some reality TV shows! ;op
But what I will say is, as cute as these neckwarmers are, there is some blocking needed on them as they curl like the dickens!
Don't talk about me! I will be upgrading my blocking supplies soon! ;op
Like getting some real pins and I would LUV these neat blocking gadgets!! But think I am going to go with a knock off version! Haha! :oD
My steam has been slowing down in knitting, but thank goodness my desire is still there!
Glad Mr. Mojo hasn't left me, but it is time for Ms. Tenacious to come thru!!
So I can close out Ms. Rho (my BTS vest) before it starts getting warm and cranking on some socks! But I have just a couple more gift knits to spread my knitterly love around and then I can move on!
i am too looking at the knitters blocks. they would be such a big help!
That blocking thing...kinda intriguing. The ability to make a big rectangle appeals to me, versus blocking my shawls in pieces.
Hey where did you get your labels? my MIL got me some awhile back they aren't that nice!!
Pretty neck warmer!
Thanks for the inspiration. The neckwarmer is very pretty and thoughtful of you!
Thanks again my BeFF
Hey, can't you use those alphabet square mats that they sell for kiddos in Toys R Us?? I wonder if they're as water-proof or whatever?
