Lately we have been obsessed with the tv series White Collar. There are three seasons on Netflix right now, and we've watched all of them in about two weeks... :) not really, but maybe...
Yesterday was Scott's birthday and I think he had a good day :)
I picked up my Hue Shift afghan again:
and am pleased to say I've finished the first two quadrants!! Now I'm aiming to knit one square a day. If I keep up, I will be finished with all four quadrants at the beginning of November! Then I will have to seam them together and add a border. I reaaally want to finish it before the end of the year. Cross your fingers for me please! It's really nice to work on it now that the weather has cooled down.
I am also working on September's Woodland Sampler block:
Aaaaand, in honor of her first design, Melissa is hosting a KAL for Rachel's Shawl! It is a gorgeous lace shawl and from now until the end of October, Melissa is donating all proceeds to a wonderful cause, which I think is just outstanding and generous.
Happy Weekend, friends :)
I didn't think you could be any cooler but now I see you're a cross-stitcher, too...makes me smile :)
ReplyDeletethanks for mentioning the shawl, Jesse! anxiously waiting to see what you're up to with yours
Hehe!! do you cross stitch? it's such a different pace than knitting.
DeleteEeek, I've chosen my yarn! hoping to cast on today!!
Oh my gravy! That afghan rocks so far. And that woodland sampler is so cute. What patience you have as something like that is start and stop and tie off.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! It's so rewarding to have the afghan this far :)
Deletehappy birthday to your guy! your afgan is awesome, wow! what a treasure it will be. i love the sampler, can you tell me more about it? happy weekend to you too!
ReplyDeleteYes! Google Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery and you will find many cute designs. For the Woodland sampler, each month's pattern is sent via email (and we don't know what the rest of the year looks like yet!) Do you enjoy cross stitching? The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery has the cutest!
Deleteoh thank you jesse! i used to do cross stitch (for years) but mostly just knit these days. i may have to try it again, love your sampler!
DeleteBeautiful progress on everything love!
