I finished my the SNB Cabled Newsboy cap for my daughter. Her's came out better than mine. Mine is too big, I tried frogging it and remove some of the rows but that didn't seem to work. I think I might remove a few more rows.

My job just blocked everyone from checking personal mail and going to any site that has chat or seems like it has chat. That really sucks because I like to check my mail during lunch just to see what's going on. Now I spend my lunch reading the messages from the different knitting yahoo sites I joined.

I'm going to start working on my vest again. I started it about 2 months ago and put it down to start socks and the SNB Cabled Newsboy cap. I love the yarn I bought for the vest, I put it down because I don't like knitting with large needles (I'm using size 13).

I'm back to working on my bag. I was hoping to finish it before the end of the month, I only have 2 days left.

I finally finished my French Market bag. It didn't turn out so great. I need to add more rows, it was so shallow it can't hold a thing. I don't think I'll be making another one of these anytime soon.

Currently, I'm making another SNB Cabled Newsboy Cap for my daughter. I'm using Catalina 100% baby Alpaca (which I am in love with), it knits up soft and warm. I love the color, it's a deep red. I will post pics when I'm done.

I'm almost done with my first sock (only one foot so far). I was getting a little bored with the sock until I turned the heel and realized I'm almost done.

Hey, two days in a row, I'm doing good!

I'm dreading tomorrow, my apartment is being painted. I live in a 2 bedroom apt. in NYC, it's small but I have accummulated quite a few things. The managment had the nerve to tell me to put everything in the center of the room like the rooms are big. I'm so not looking forward to tomorrow.

On to happier things... I went to 3 LYS today. I bought several 5 skeins of Patons Classic Wool Merino (for felting), 2 skeins of Mauch Chunky (more felting), 2 skeins of Catalina Chunky 100% Baby Alpaca (from my new favorite LYS, Knitty City), 1 skein of Artful yarns Fable, 2 skeins of Filatura Di Crosa Millefili Fine and 1 skein of Rowan Summer Tweed (to make a bag from my new Bag book).



I had to do something to cheer myself up.


I didn't end with the yarn either I bought 25 Bags to Knit by Emma King. I already chose a pattern and bought the yarn. I really like this book.



My favorite (Knitty City) LYS is now selling Noni bag patterns, I think I'm going to get one.

Wow! I haven't been here for a while. I just finished a felted hat with a brim. I really like this hat, when I was done knitting it up I thought it was way too big (it fit over my son head all way to past his shoulders and he's 12). Once I finish felting it I love, love, love it. I'm giving it away to my sister and my co-worker asked me to make her one to go with her buttonhole bag I made her, she is going to match. I used 2 and a 1/4 skein of Lamb's Pride bulky weight.

I'm presently working on the French Market Bag (I love felting) and a sock.

I'm trying to stay consisting with adding posts to my blogger but some days I am so busy that I just don't remember. I love looking at other knitting bloggers because they are well put together.
