I have amazed even myself- two projects completed this weekend, count 'em, TWO! The Weekend Sweater is scrumptously soft, though if I do another I won't make the neck quite as high. If you've never knit an Elizabeth Zimmerman percentage sweater, this is a great first pattern. I loved it- no seams to sew and the only finishing was grafting the underarms and weaving in a few loose ends. The Moccasin Socks came out well, too. Warm and cozy, which my perpetually cold feet will love. They're in EZ's Knitting Around.
My DD #1 took the picture- that's her little orange toe showing. :) I finished these just in time. I have to start EZ's Adult Surprize Jacket today. My knit-along group insists- haha. I have several left over skeins from the Weekend Sweater, that I should probably knit a scarf and hat with, too. And then there are all those other pesky projects on my list... Busy, busy, busy! Also on schedule for today- work on an article for www.restministries.org, taxi children who have the day off school and oh so busy social lives, and mucho laundry. God bless your week!
Michelle, I'm so pleased you decided to start a blog. It's looking wonderful and I've added you to my favourite blog reads as I know I'm going to enjoy reading about your knitting adventures.
Your Weekend Sweater and Moc Socks look absolutely gorgeous!!
