the last of 'em!
Feb. 24th, 2004 11:44 amWell I am working on more projects all the time, and I'll get a list of WIPs here in a minute. But I've promised to get all of the purses online and here they are!
My very, very first felted purse, and my 2nd knitting project evah! I used cascade 220 and loved the colors. I think the green really sparked up the heathered purples. I took awhile to finish this because I was afraid of the cobbler. The owner lives in Hong Kong, and has written me to very nice notes about how much she loves it. I was glad she liked it, but sad to see it go.
This is one of those wha? purse colors. Knit in Galway wool the bottom is dark wine, the orange and the pink get lost in the definition b'cos they are the same value. My boss picked the colors and at first I'll admit I was afraid it would not work. But by the time I was done I saw these colors EVERYWHERE! She loves it and told me someone asked her where she bought it while she was visiting NYC. Quite a compliment.
WIPs:
Jean's baby sweater. I still have the sleeves to do!! But I am starting them this afternoon. 80% done
Judy's Purse: I cast off last nite. I need to sew the bottom, and then I want to make an i-cord top that includes a catch to close it up. 95% done
Sue's sweater: I only have the arms and neck edgings to knit. Why wait? well I think that I do not have the right amount of yarn and I don't want to start it and get frustrated. The Merino place is 4 hrs away. If I set the edging of the sleeve, find out I need more and have to buy a different lot I might have to frog. 90% done
Bobbi's beaded bag: I got the goods last week and showed her what I had, she picked a variagated red bag that I have knit just over an inch. I know this will knit fast. 10% done
Danni's layette: I swatched last nite.
What I want to work on: Amber's purse (I started but realized I grabbed the silk garden from my stash instead of the kureyon. It went into the frog pond.) Mom's purse. cotton tape tank for me. dk jaeger sweater set for me. a couple of pillows: silk garden and collinette. A red chenille scarf for Sheila. and that folks, would be the end of my stash! But I did see a very nice ballet shirt in the new IK (no yarn yet) by annie modesitt that I fell in love with. I would like to make one summer sweater, be it the cotton tape tank from rowan or the modesitt ballet shirt from IK.
