Quickly!

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

I don’t understand why everything has to be done so quickly these days, but it seems like I always have to be somewhere besides where I am!  But I do want to get back into my routine with the blog, now that summer is almost over and the yarn of the week sales are done for a while.  I have some catching up to do with photos, too, so I’m going to show you some really cool projects below.

We’ll have our class schedule up by the weekend and ready to take signups, so check it out when you get our email notice.  I’m really pleased with the schedule – there is so much variety, I think anyone could find something of interest.

Now, to the projects!

Carol Whitcraft has been knitting for her first great-grand, and as she says, she’s done more than 3 babies could use.  This is such a cute set:

I hope I get to see the baby in this!

Sheila Yarus has been knitting all summer, too.  Here are two of her finished pieces:

A pretty shrug in Royal Bamboo, and

a Featherweight Cardigan in Hempathy.  Beautifully done, of course!

Janice Beiler also knit this pretty cardigan from two colors of Hempathy:

Here is the detail of the neckline – such a beautiful touch:

Patty Golembiewski took a couple classes this summer, and this is her felted tote:

It turned out beautifully and I love the little details she added.

I hope to have Adult Surprise pictures for you next week, this is the last session of our Knitalong.  Next time we may do this:

which is Nimbus from Berroco.  The design is simple-looking but I made many changes to eliminate a whole lot of sewing at the end.

And doesn’t Geordie look sweet?  He’s sleeping innocently right now, unaware that we’re about to rush off the groomer!

See you soon…
