We return to our usual programming... knitting!
In January, Anuja had a brilliant idea of hosting a knitting night for a couple of her girlfriends. So we gathered, each brought a dish and we created a monthly tradition! Projects that was started/continued on the first night; a blanket and 5 scarves!
February, I finished my long-awaited KIP!
Then March, I hosted it in my house. :)Projects started: 3 scarves, 1 garment
Project continued: 2 scarves
Project completed: 1 scarf and 1 blanket
Anuja finished her blanket. ^^
Breanna completed one scarf and started another. ^^Roopa continued on her multi-coloured, recycled silk scarf. ^^
And after much knitting hiatus, I've started on Stefanie Japel's Fitted Knit - Puffed Sleeved Feminine Cardigan. This whole piece is knitted in one, except for a little pick-up around the front edges for the button bands.
Even though the original is in red, I've done mine in a pink-ish red Zara. I'm quite excited by it, though there are some bits about the pattern that I worry about... :PAnyway, wish me luck! At least with knitting nights continuing every month, I get some motivation to finish this. ^^
