Revision

                  Today I have managed to go both backwards and forwards. On my Ribbed Baby Blanket I decided that it was taking to long and was coming out uneven, so I had to unravel it, I then put it on my knitting loom, which would have picked up the pace but it was way too loose for what I wanted, so I undid it again. Now it is in a simple double crochet with 2 strands of the yarn at the same time so I could get the right pull to it but get a better thickness I am using Baby Bee sweet delight prints: gageboy's yarn  and a size H/8-5.00mm hook. I a playing around with edging it once I've finished I wanted to put a fringe on it put as this will be for a baby maybe that isn't the best idea. I also plan to embroider the babys name and maybe a small message on there before I give it to the lil sis for delivering, not before of course putting a picture up here.
                In other news, once I finish this and the Lap throw for my In-laws I am going to play with a couple new-to-me techniques on some scarves and a new-to-me concept of hats, I have only worked in the round once and it didn't come that naturally but I'm keeping my fingers crossed, plus as I proved with this blanket I am willing to keep taking it apart until I think its right!

Unending pile of projects

                     Once upon a time (maybe a month or two ago) I dreamed that I would have all of my Christmas gifts for my minnesota family done and out of the way, packed in a nice box for them to keep until Christmas morning. Yeah that turned out to be a fairy-tale. I was to make 3 scarves 3 hats and a blanket, thats all, doesn't seem like much does it? I've make 1 scarf (1 really cool scarf it looks like legos and I will post the pattern) and half of a blanket, I've never even made a hat before so I don't know how well that will turn out. The saddest part is I'm not even working on the blanket right now, instead I'm working on a baby blanket for my lil sis and her friend at work. Oh well maybe I will get them done before New Years.
                      I have managed to complete a hunting scarf for my husband on a knitting loom that looks really nice (and will also end up here) so maybe I'm not quite a lost cause yet.
                     Ive also found how I want to store my yarn as soon as we move into our new appartment. Its really small so I was worried about how everything would hide nicely then I saw this and I loved that now I don't have to hide it at all I can hang it, it might take me a bit to post it on here because we don't even move in for a couple of weeks but as soon as its up I will share it with everyone.


Project to-do list:
1-Finish ridged baby blanket
2-Finish cuddly lap throw
