Sleeves

I was relegated to Sleeve Island... and rescued in a week! So happy to be done with the sleeves! This is the good thing about knitting for infants, because everything is smaller/shorter/cuter. The exciting bits in these here sleeves were the moss border, the decreases, the smocking, the increases, and the bind-off. Yup. You can tell I don't go out much.

Seems I haven't been keeping up wit' the blogs. Which is why Jessica's posted 78 entries! I am almost scared to click... I know she's got those WTF knitting projects and Manolo anecdotes, always funny. Okay, I *will* click!

Kris inspired me with her lists, so here's my summer knitting list:

  1. Baby Socks #3, to finish the everlasting ball of Lorna's Laces
  2. SIL's horribly belated Birthday Socks
  3. Sock Pattern, simple design
  4. Grandma's KSH Shawl, take 2. Feather and fan, I think
  5. Kiri Shawl

And my summer physical fitness list:

  1. Convert those 10 vacation pounds back to, um, "muscle" (run, climb, push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups)

It's short, I won't bother with too many details, but we know how painful it is to lose the weight. I *really* want to fit into that swimsuit! Welcome to summer!
