On Sunday I ventured into my gardens and was disgusted with the lack of maintenance. I need to seriously devote some time to it before Winter sets in. I need to move some plants and remove tons of weeds! Yucky!
Now that I'm knitting I just can't seem to fit this hobby in. The sad part of it all is that the weather has been gorgeous! So there's no reason for me to be knitting inside. I need a chair to sit on my porch and then I can do both. Yup, must find one.
Knitting Front
I'm about half way done with my Mother's bday scarf. I need another skein of Koigu to finish it. While I'm waiting to purchase that I started another project. I'm knitting another scarf for a relative in pinks and purples. Pic to come soon.
The Poncho is still on hold until I buy another yarn to strand along with the mohair. I think I've found one but just need to check for color. While at Springwater Fiber Workshop I found tons of Jaggerspun yarn on cones. Gorgeous stuff! I'm going there today to pick it up along with Koigu. Oh and I'm still waiting for an extra skein of Mountain Colors Weaver's Wool in Garnet. I've emailed the shopowner for a status.
Let's see...Klaralund. I've done a swatched and blocked it yesterday. I think I'll need to go up to US9 needles because my preliminary measurements came up to 17 stitches & 23 rows for 4". That was done on my Denise US 8 needles. I think I'll use my Addis for the next swatch.
And last but not least in my list of projects: the basketweave pullover. I still haven't received my Webs order for the Lana D'Oro yarn. They are sooo backed up. Dang it.
