Here’s number one…
Well, I guess I’ve finally joined the 21st century! Here’s my first blog entry.
What I’m knitting: hanging towels for mother’s day. Two down and two to go. I’m doing them for Mom and Deanna. I hope they’ll like them. I wanted something functional and attractive that also comes from the heart. I found a pattern for free on about.com but I ended up modifying it by making it six stitches narrower and one pattern row (8 rows) longer. It just seems short in the original pattern. I’m pleased with the alterations I’ve made.
What I’m waiting to knit: I have a penguin pattern from knitty.com called Pasha that I want to make for John in honor of his new job. Here’s the picture:
And the pattern can be found here if you want to make one yourself for the Linux geeks you love!
I’ve also got patterns and yarn for two sweaters I want to make for AJ and one I’d like to make for myself—but the yarn for that is yet to be purchased.
