Ravelympics

I decided to participate in the Ravelympics this year. I am in the Sock Put and the Shawl Relay. I'm going to do the Froggin' sock pattern using the Dashing Dachs fingering weight in the Froggin' Colorway and the Diamonds and Pearls Shawl in Lady Godiva's Ocean colorway.


The shawl is going to be the challenge. At least it is a one skein worsted weight project.

Knitting on straights with charity yarn

I haven't knit on straight needles in about two years.

However today I was over at my parents house and realized I didn't have any knitting with me. When I moved out I took all my yarn and needles, except for my portion of the charity yarn given to the knitting group and straight needles.

I guess I am more addicted to knitting than I thought. I was over there watching tv and I couldn't focus on what I was watching without a project in my hands.

So I now have a rib stitch scarf for charity in progress.
