Yarn Along...Yes! It's Finished!

~ Two of my favorite things are knitting and reading, and the evidence of this often shows up in my photographs.  I love seeing what other people are knitting and reading as well. So, what are you knitting or crocheting right now? What are you reading?












April 4th to May 31st.  I thought it was much longer than that.  It is complete.  Thank goodness.  I wanted to share many pictures because I just felt cleansed to do so.  Do you see now what I meant by having to knit that other end alone and then kitchner it on?  Symmetry?

The needles have already moved on.  Those last two pictures are from Ravelry.  The first will actually look like that and the second will be gray and lilac with the pink flowers.  I've never knit the chevron pattern before, so something new will be most fun!

This weekend I should have three new designs in the shop. One is a secret ( you will know soon), another is  a rosary bag idea, and the third is a children's backpack. So much going on in the Drawstrings world!

Continuing to read The Little Oratory in this group along with the discussion.  Looking forward to the second audio this week.

Excited to see all the knitting today!  Linking up with Ginny!

  6. What a beautiful knit. I totally understand the need to have symmetry in that knit. It would have bothered me also. I love the zig-zag knits also. Especially those little flowers.
