grrr....

so yesterday i wrote this huge entry about my progress, and then i hit the wrong button and poof! gone! *sigh* so here i am again, and hopefully i don't do the same thing i did yesterday.

so first, the great news!!! k's party is this saturday and not today as originally thought! *phew* so i have two more days to work on it, but i think i'll just tell her the gift is on the way and finish it over the weekend. i don't want to rush this thing and have it properly blocked. btw - how do you block something that's knitted in the round? i'm stumped. i'll ask libby today.

other great news - halcyon yarn RULES. they got my e-mail and the next day called me to tell me they had only 1 cone of the 3/2 pearlized cotton in color #177 left!!!! so the shipped it to me and i got it yesterday! halycon yarns, you are my savior!

so here's the newest shipment of yarn this week. i'm going to stop going to yarn stores altogether if this continues... hmm... what could be my color for the fall? i wonder....


i know i put up a huge circle on the upper right-hand corner. this was taken at my bf's place and that's a little boba fett mez-its on his desk.
it's the cutest.

so yesterday i was complaining about how hush seemed to take forever to get to the next section... when no longer! today i started the top fan and feather! WOOOO HOOO! i don't have pictures of the new segment, but i'll most likely get them today since i have my little work knitting meetup at lunch. here's my progress from the weekend:


that's about 1 inch away from the fan and feather.

a closeup because i can't get enough of the first fan and feather. :-P

i'm so excited! this definitely means i can get a start on carla by next week! how awesome. now if only my "it's a tape thing" could get here already so i can start swatching!

Your hush hush is coming out great. I have this great yarn that I'm debating between making hush-hush or making a sweater with.

I love that pink too! Can't wait to see pictures of it knitted all up.
