because I’m aparently the luckiest woman

Until he did this, I was all set to write about the time he told his afraid-of-committment friend that it was better to learn to really please one woman than to have akward sexual relationships with lots of them. And I would have made you oh, so jealous. But now? Not so much.

(And PS, just so you can have a true idea of the WHOLE story, I’m allergic to cheese, the store is 4 blocks away, and he bought me fruit punch while I was puking. FRUIT PUNCH!)

a few finished projects and something I didn’t knit

April 10th, 2007 — 12:27pm

I’ve finally got around to taking pictures of a few things I’ve finished (but not my sweater workshop sweater yet! I’m so lazy!)

A bunny hat from the book itty bitty hats. I love this book – I’d love to knit every single hat I think!

I used scraps of Pima Tencel, Cascade Sierra and GGH Samoa.

A baby bib.

This is a super simple knit, inpsired by the bibs in Mason Dixon Knitting. (1 Skein Peaches and Creme, size 7 needles about an hour, ta da!)

The Rutabaga bag

This is from the Spring issue of Knitscene. It’s super fun to knit and make a great re-useable shopping bag.

2 skeins of Cascade Sierra, size 10.5 24″ circs.

And Christina knitted this Rusted Root for a model for the store. I just happened to have her knit it in my size! (Don’t mind the hair, it’s crazy windy here today and the dog decided that he wanted to walk with me to the yarn store today, so I had to chase him down and take him back home.)

I didn't knit it but I get to wear it!

We found the sizing to be a little big and Christina ended up knitting the size Medium (36-39″ bust). It took 4 skeins of Cascade Sierra, and it’s SO super comfy!

And just one quick pic of my little photographer.
