Catching Up

I can't believe how long it's been since I posted...time just keeps marching along doesn't it?  I have been very busy....I finished a sweater, a top-down from Knitting Pure and Simple.  I was easy and quick because it was knit with bulky yarn on size 15 and 17 needles.  I like it very much.

I started that sweater because I was very frustrated with this one:

this is supposed to be part of my SWAP, but I'm not sure it's going to make it.  It is kid mohair is supposed to look like this:

I like the way it is turning out, except that it might be too big.  Ugh!  I am going to keep going and see what happens.  It's an awful lot of work for something that I'll never wear!

I also finished a quilt for my sister-in-law, who will be beginning chemo very soon.  Everyone in the family wrote on a heart and another sis-in-law and I did the construction.  I finished the borders, quilting and binding.  I know she will love it.

That's all for now, more later...stay tuned!
