Start-itis is a bad thing. But in the words of Ludacris, why does everything that’s bad for me feels so good. Ok, maybe that’s a little extra, but anyway, here’s what I have going right now:

The Entrelac Scarf:

Now when I first touched Noro, I did not think I would like it. It seemed rough, and itchy. But when La made her mom an Entrelac scarf with it, I changed my mind, real quick.

Shifting Sands Scarf:

With one of my favorite yarns, Dream In Color. It’s so soft and squishy. This scarf is for a woman that I work with that is so sweet. She made me a really pretty knitting needle holder, that I still need to take a picture of.

Purple Berries Scarf:

Manos may become one of my favorite yarns as well. I think this pattern is perfect for this yarn, shows off the variegation very well!!

And last but definitely not least, the CPH:

This is my first sweater. I thought I would be able to finish it in a month, but it’s not looking like that will be possible. Anywho, my progress of the back.

I don’t feel overwhelmed, yet, but all of these are fairly new projects, so we’ll see how I do!

Knitting Machine… January 12, 2009

For some reason, I did quite a bit of knitting this weekend. I finished a Christmas Gift, that really shouldn’t have taken this long:

I made a cabled beret for the lady that trims my hair for me.  This was a really quick knit for me, I can’t wait to make me a few:

I also worked on my square scarf.  I’ve done a little over 15 repeats, so I have about 5 more to go!

After that, I’m going to work on my Lady E so I can get that finished.

Then I will be ready to start my CPH!  Which will be my first sweater!!

An Update… October 29, 2008

So, the scarf that I took down, is going pretty well.  Here’s a picture of my progres…

It is actually a little longer than this now.  I’m hoping to be done (or at least mostly done) by November 10th.  I’ve got to get on my grind, before Christmas sneaks up on me!

Update… October 17, 2008

So, I finished the scarf for my sister:

Then, I went and cast on two more projects, a hat to match the above scarf, and a scarf for my mom for Christmas.  I’m making good progress though, so I won’t be too hard on myself.
