Monday is starting slowly...

So a couple of photos to prove I still have things on the needles *grin*

I cast this on on friday, 3 strands of frog tree sport alpaca, pattern is Lady Eleanor, this is going to be *huge* and *warm* - and I have discovered I'm either allergic to alpaca (which is what I am fearing) or to something in the processing, I itch - but it is turning out so beautifully I can't stop! - frogged back one line of squares last night, as I discovered that I can't necessarily count and watch tv perfectly. Oh - and this was my first attempt at knitting back rather than turning and purling, at this point I am not turning the work at all, just charging back and forth - yeah!!!

This I cast on a couple of weeks ago, and charged through, Dreams in Colour is wonderful to work with! - It was made up as I went along, and is sufficiently comfortable and functional that I am going to do another with minor mods, which may make it as far as the writing down phase!

Life improved some, hopefully I will post more regularly from here out.
