Again & Again
This has been a wonderful winter but enough already. As I look out the window this morning I have a feeling that I've seen this scene before-snow (again)! Winter is a wonderful time to cuddle up by the fire and knit while listening to a good audible book. But enough already. Even the deer are getting tired this.
Something tells me we should be seeing signs of Spring around here soon. I was just looking over my yarn stash, and the various projects I am working on and I quickly saw a pattern. I have been knitting the same stockinette stitich again & again. It must be time for a change.
I'm working on a lace weight merino wool cardigan for myself-all stockinette stitch. Great for watching TV (especially during March Madness) but it doesn't do much for the creative side of my brain.
And then there is that second sock waiting patiently to be knit.
The interesting thing about knitting socks is that once you knit one-yup, it is time to knit the same thing AGAIN.
Since my last post I have finished a few projects. A few baby cardigans for some special little ones.
And I did manage to get out of the knit a row, purl a row pattern for a bit. I am in need of another pair of good warm wool mittens (lost my favorites a month ago). Found this pattern from my favorite designer at Knitspot called Fat Tire Mittens. I must admit is does have a little more going on then the plain stockinette stitch.
So Spring bring it on.....ready for some sunshine, thoughts of the garden, and new projects. I've got my journal started with my projects listed and I made the journey yesterday to get some new yarn for these projects.
Happy Spring.....I'll be knitting....again & again.
