Motley? Yep, motley because I dye yarn to knit in many colors. Motley also means of many different or clashing elements, and that sums me, and my life up pretty well.
Stitchmarkers. They are absolutely the best thing to have when knitting lace. Mark every repeat if you have to, and be sure to count as you knit. Oh, and post it notes. Post its are life savers. lol I always mark the row I am on and write it down with the day and time if I have to leave it for a while. :) Hope this helps.
Ooo, that shawl is pretty! Can't wait to see it!Thanks for the comments lately!
Oh, My Gosh, that shawl is GORGEOUS! I am so impressed! I might be a shawl convert after this summer. Whew! I'm going to go check out the one-skein wonders book, too. Sounds neat. (P.S. Also just plain old glad you posted - haha!)
I love froggies!! YAY!!Yup, that's some UFO!! You can do it, i know you can!Oh sure, link me to another shawl that i'm just going to HAVE to knit! Damn you! LOL!
That shawl is beautiful! That should be a fun project.Good luck with the shrug this time around--I know what you mean about seaming.
Have fun knitting your shawl...after you finish the shrug, of course.
Love the froggies! Can't wait to see all of your finished projects in your next posts!! Hope you're enjoying your kids home :-) I always love the beginning of summer and the beginning of the new school year.. about equally! ;-)
love the froggies! can't wait to see your finished shrug!
Oh, those kind of frogs! And love that shawl!
I love the shawl! I've never knitted one, either. That would actually be a good project for me if I wanted to take a break from knitting baby stuff.Can't wait to see the finished shrug! Sometimes it DOES help to put something away when it doesn't seem to be working. Later, when you come back to it, you are a little wiser, and aren't still harboring those negative feelings toward the project!
Great shawl! And perfect name. :)
cool frog effect. I think you've achieved a fair amount, esp. considering the kids are on break. Enjoy the summer too!
Procrastinating on seams? I feel ya!I've avoided starting projects on account of seams. One day, I'll get over it.
Love the shawl. Also, branching out is a beautiful shawl and those colors are lovely. Can someone still join the shawl along? I've been working on Gretchen for awhile now that new needles came. Ah.. summer. Isn't it lovely?
