Thursday is Knitalong Day!
Sometimes, anyway.
So, KAL Report:
Nothing to report. Move along.
Actually, there's a bit to report. I did sign up for Project Spectrum (link in sidebar), since I've got lot of projects in a variety of colors lined up for the summer. In the interest of getting this post up, though, you'll have to imagine the colors--I've been sitting on this post for several days now. So, as we approach the end of red/pink month, let's have a (psychic) look at my Spectral knitting (spooky!) shall we?
First, the return of the Pearl Buck. Imagine a deep, rich red.
Back and yoke done, working on fronts. This will continue on well past the end of March, but since I'm not too fond of yellow/orange, I think I'll be extending my red knitting through April. I'll just try to be more aware of the yellows and oranges in the world. They are helpful, after all.
Next, a new entry, Knitting Pure and Simple's Henley in Mission Falls 1824! You are seeing a goregous dark pinkish red. The color name is Merlot. It's staining my needles like a fine red wine.
Unexpected, this knit was. I won't detail the drama that led me here. Sufficient to say a certain Green Tee sent me into fits of apoplexy upon finishing (neck way too big--pattern perhaps to blame?) and I needed to get my mojo back.
And a new addition to the spectrum in my life is a sassy pink wallet. I love Target.
Sock Knitting
My sock knitting has been spotty. I think Steve and I need to attend some concert-type events where you can't really carry a whole lot with you. I get lots of sock knitting done then. Baseball games are great. Movies are good too.
I need to make a final decision regarding my Sockapaloooza socks. Tune in next week for the (not so) exciting details!
Comments
hey - the comment link on the post below doesn't seem to work?
anyway, i have a question: how did you get your post to link to a "more" section? i'm going to steal your idea, also for a spoiler comment on V for Vendetta.

I closed comments due to rampant spamming activity. Blasted spammers!
Movable Type (my blog software) has this feature where you can set off a portion of your text. I'm not sure how Blogger does that...

I'm knitting the Interweave Serape Jacket in merlot. Love the color, but oh the cotton is tough on my hands.
