Frog it!


Well bring out the whips and the thumbscrews I've been a bad bad knitting blogger. You know... "father forgive me... it's been ages since I last posted". Anyway, we didn't have an official get together as such, but Kristi did come over and share her latest bit o' lace.

I still have the shadow knit sweater I'm working on for Savanna... though it may become a pillow and I'll make her a mosaic knit sweater instead, it's very tempting.




Oh yes and I got quite the nice platform find the other day, a Raw silk sweater, large enough to fit Aaron. He tried it on after it had a wash but he said he didn't really care for it (though who could blame him, it did have this obnoxious reindeer pattern all over it). So I've been frogging it out and keeping the silk for myself (say that five time fast). It's coming apart quickly and I've got about 8 oz so far. It's an oatmeal sort of color but I'm thinking of dyeing whatever I knit out of it a nice burgundy. I might try a sideways knit this time. Who knows?
