I've got more pimping to do, but I'll save it for during the week. Instead, let me wish you a happy Valentine's Day. We don't do much in terms of celebrating (ok, we don't do anything to celebrate except smooch, but we do that on other days, too), and I think having a quiet, slow-paced day together is better than flowers or chocolates or dinners out.
I'm making slow progress, but progress on my Ravelympics project, Elizabeth Zimmerman's Green Sweater. I'm making mine in gray, though, because my LYS owner convinced me that every woman needs to knit herself a nice gray sweater at least once. I'm planning to include a smidge of waist shaping as my figure is not flattered by boxy sweaters.
I've spent the day writing up story critiques for a talented client, watching the Olympics, knitting, and mooning over shawl patterns. I've decided that my skein of Olympic Medals is going to be a shawl. 400 yards of superwash merino in gold, silver, and bronze. What would you make?
How about you go buy a skien and we can have a March Medals KAL?
I’m the talented client? Really? Thanks!! 🙂
Actually, I bet that yarn would make a fabulous Twisted. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/twisted-2
Just sayin’…
That sweater is lovely. The lines are dreamy. A great work sweater!
I’m always up for a good KAL – but I’m on a no buying yarn kick right now. I did the math and I have 6.5 years worth of knitting in front of me 🙁
