Sticks n' String

First Post!

Huzzah for a new knit blog!

I'll just repost my latest knitting related post that's in my other blog until the batteries in the digital charge. Without further adeiu:

Dear Manley Sweater,



Why you are Manley, aren't you? Ever so Manley. I have fallen in love with your drape, with your feel. I know I screwed up when I twisted a few stitches, and I may have even fallen out of pattern and not noticed it until I was six more inches up the back, but you are still my pride and joy. I know you are only half whole, but I'm working on it! I could never forget you!

See:


I've already begun to make you whole!

Also, could we please talk about this:



My feeble mind cannot quite grasp how to bring the yarn over from one finished shoulder to the unfinished shoulder. I'm sure it's simple, but apparantly I am dimwitted today.

Now we both know that I've been knitting my father's scarf on the side.



It was agreed upon! There's no need to get jealous!

What? What's what? What's this?



This is nothing! It's most definitely NOT Regia self striping sock yarn! NO! I would never dream of casting on another project while you're still in the works!

Baby.... baby don't be like this. You know I love you. Who loves you?

Love,
me

My peeps, I have started the sock! She is fabulous! Pictures to follow...
