The Long Awaited Update

August 27, 2007

Well this is embaracing, sorry for the lanthy amout of time that has passed without an up date. So the tank is still only a hank of beautiful red yarn and I’m left puzzled because the lovely sales lady sold me the wrong needle size, a mistake on my part not cheaking before I bought them, but fustating all the same. And the pattern is not turning out to really be to my liking, so I will have to see what I can do to make it better.

Most of my knitting time has been on this little white cardigane for: Madison Taylor Brooks the newest baby in my life. I modified the patterns from Mason and Dixon Knitting.

I’m pleased with how it came out I think the little lavender buttons add a sweet touch.

Summers ending much to quickly and I’ve decided to put the red tank on hold and start takeling my first pair on mittens. Nothing fancy just a plain pair of mitts in this Homespun in indigo blue from Lion Brand Yarns. Not the best quality stuff but it will do for a first try.
