Too busy knitting to blog!


Happy New Year. I have not written in a while and have completed a bunch of fun projects since. I made myself the Rowan Big Wool Suzy Sweater in chocolate brown. Then made a wonderful christmas stocking that I altered from Nicky Epstein and am now finishing up another Nicky Epstein stocking for my daughter. Hard to motivate to knit stockings after Christmas! With my son's, I finished it the night before Christmas Eve so I was so motivated to get it done in time for Santa. He is 4 so Santa is huge around here. Trying to figure out my next project. I used Sweater Wizard which if you have not seen it, it is incredible software that customizes a sweater to any size, style, needle etc. I may do a shell from that, or a summer sweater for my son. Any ideas? I was very surprised last week my my children's preschool was looking for someone to host a knitting party to auction off at our annual auction. I jumped at the chance to do that. Hope someone bids! I hope that means more young people are continuing to get interested in knitting.
