Bizzy

Just a quick post to say hello. I am bizzy. My days sound exactly like Jackie's, just a lot of freelance that never ends. Some days I don't change out of my pajamas (sorry, too much info, but I do brush my teeth! :-)). So no Norwegian Knits updates this week, but if you're curious you can go to all the participants' pages.

I finished my Ufserud hat and have started to think about what to knit next. I know I'd love to do a Starmore (Margene has started Rosalie and it's a *beautiful* pattern) or Rosendal (I saw it on Wendy's blog and now I want it) and they're both big commitments, but I think I need a little more experience with steeking before I start them, so my next project will be small. Maybe a vest (I know Eunny's just designed a beautiful one) or Wendy's Baby Norgi... Just thinking out loud at this point.

Claudine wrote that she knitted a pair of Mirabella socks, woo hoo! They look great, Claudine! She did have problems with the toe; I know at least one other person did so I'll have to redo the instructions sometime soon. My apologies to those who've tried knitting them and have thrown the instructions out in frustration!

Speaking of self designs, it turned out there was a Craftster knitalong for Liesel (blushes). (And Claudine is in the process of knitting that as well.) I guess I need to do more searches and create galleries in the future.

Soon, soon, soon! *sigh* In the meantime, you can read about the New York Times article on spinning (if you haven't already), or how to be a horrible troll on the internets. There's also Girl from Auntie's posts regarding Stich 'N Bitch and Sew Fast, Sew Easy. And books coming up from Mason-Dixon Knitting and Wendy Knits! My, I'm missing quite a few things, aren't I?

Comments closed for this post. Boy, do I owe a lot of emails!
