Stitch and Chat

I met with Michelle and Lynn this Wednesday. Michelle found an error in my fingerless gloves pattern and I'm really glad. We worked out the glitch and posted the errata on Knitting Centrals website. I had written it for a closed thumb instead of an open (fingerless) thumb! Don't know what I was thinking. I kind of liked it though!
Michelle also finished the back of a collared "wallaby" type sweater knit in Puffin by Crystal Palace Yarns. Puffin feels like fleece and is machine wash/dry. I just wish it came in adult colors.

Lynn is well into her garter stitch scarf and probably will have it done next week. We talked about having one easy (mindless) knit project and one slightly challenging project. This seems to work well for all of the stitchers in our merry band of knitters (I'm a little punchy, end of a long day). It serves two purposes, one, if you run into a problem with your challenging project, you have another project to fall back on; two, if you just feel like knitting and not working hard at it, you have an option. Lynn's going to make a felted cat bed for her cat and join us in our purse knitalong (kal). I'll have another post up with all the details soon.

I finished a herringbone scarf knit with Sheep Two variegated yarn. I love it! It's so soft and the the colors of the show up vibrantly.
