Girl Gone Loopy

It’s been AGES since I’ve posted.

I’ve been bsy… So bsy, I forgot “u”…

 Har, har…  Never said I was a comedian…

So, there is very little knitting content right now.  Not that I haven’t been knitting…I have.  I just don’t have the patience to take pics and post them right now.  I’d rather be..well, um…knitting.  Go figure.

Here’s what I’ve been working on…

“Touch of Aran” pullover by Harrisville designs (horrid pic in a horrid color).  I’m using Galway in a soft heathered appley green…it’s a weird pic of the color, it’s not so sick-yellowy…it’s more sagey.  >shrug<  It’s a great color.  I love it.  I’ve just started the cable panel on the top back.

I’m also part of the International Scarf Exchange 5.  My pal and I had similar color/texture “likes” so I picked something that I would love to recieve and I hope she likes it.  I am using Jade Sapphire Silk Cashmere lace weight in the Pumpkin Spice colorway.  The stitch I’m using is from Barbara Walkers yellow book, pg 154, “Ivy Pattern”…  I am doing 3 repeats, with a seed stitch border, size 6 needles.  I am digging it.

Looky!!

I really like it and I hope my pal does too!!!

I’m also working on a pair of socks…just finished the toe (they are toe up), no stitch picked yet…   I’m using a Lucy Neatby yarn that I have had for a while….looks like a psychotic garden.  I’ll post a pic when I have some of the pattern done.  Just the toe is a little boring.

Haven’t been spinning at all…  Just haven’t wanted to put my knitting down long enough to actually spin.  >shrug<  I’ll pick it back up sooner or later.

Happy weekend, all!
