Knitting Group Time!

Thankfully, I was able to see several of my crafting friends today at the knitting group. Now that I've attended two meetings in a row I'll be skipping again for a few weeks. Hearing life updates and seeing you all has been fantastic :). Hopefully, I'll be back late in June. Here is a picture of Margaret and Ellie from today.

I'll be showing my mother-in-law and a family friend how to knit next weekend. Wish me luck because I'm not an expert at teaching and I get frustrated if I'm not helpful. Sharing my love of crafting is always fun.

I'm wrapping up my two test projects and starting a third...bad bad me :). I put together the crochet top, and I knew that it would be too small. I was able to successfully pull it over my shoulders and put it on. Once the borders and straps are added, I don't think I'll have a chance. I'm thinking of sending it to a cousin's daughter who could wear it. She is much slimmer. The joys of youth.

I was trying to clear out a few boxes that haven't been emptied from moving months ago, and I found a sweater that I knitted that I can't get myself to wear in public. It's cute, but I don't wear much of my knitting beside hats, shawls, and scarves. Here it is. It's a modified pattern from an old copy of knitscene.

I spent a pretty penny on the yarn, and I think it turned out great. Maybe with the new pattern that I'm testing, I'll feel like sharing my completed knitting.

Time to gear up for another week of work and hopefully a fabulous Father's day weekend.

Wishing you all the best
