Loose Ends

 

It's almost sweater weather here so I had some weaving in to do yesterday morning. Mosi has been sitting patiently all summer. It was time she was finished.

It didn't take long at all. Thank goodness for being able to strand the colors up the side. She got a good soak in the tub where to my horror she turned the water green. I've never had Palette bleed before. 

Lofoten is now at the scary part. Short rows for the shoulders. I hate short rows. I tried German short rows this time and I did pretty well on one side but not on the other. I had to go back and fix some holes. 

The Bubbles cardi looks like this now. I've learned a lot of new things using this pattern. It is very clever.

Man socks are here. I knit these at night in bed watching Gilmore Girls episodes but after day two of power washing the deck I couldn't even hold the needles last night. It's killing my back and shoulders but we are almost done.

My long lost giant WIP has only FOUR rows to go until I can put on the edging and call it a done deal. Hiding in my closet to knit is actually not such a bad idea. No one can find me so I have a little bit of guaranteed quiet time. I might just stick another project in the bottom of my closet when this is done.
