Stitch and Chat

Happily, Claudia rejoined us yesterday. She finished two ruffled edges to sew onto her blanket (her first project!). I just want to add that she completed these with emailed instructions while on vacation. Talk about taking to knitting quickly! For the third ruffle, I showed her how to pick up stitches and knit the ruffle right onto the blanket. Yellow is such a cheerful color and the blanket look very sweet. She's knitting this from the absolutely biggest ball of yarn I've ever seen. I think it's called "pound of love". Claudia, when you're done, you can either make something else from this skein, or come into Knitting Central and pick out a new project.

Michelle has got several projects in the works (as usual) and we checking in on several of them. She's making another Flap Happy Hat, we reviewed how to get your stripes to line up evenly and carrying the tails in to reduce the amount of weaving later on.

She's onto the second glove (of her second set of "Weekend Fingerless Gloves), this one is trimmed with black fur instead of brown.











I finished a herringbone collar for my hair dresser in her favorite colors :) .
I began a scarf that will be part of a set for or one of my kids.
