3-26-10 finished with the lace part of the flirty tank and have started the upper part of the tank. I switched to size 4 needles because I ended up with 2 extra inches of measurement in the lace width so i will dry making it a little smaller with smaller needles.

I have cast on and completed about 18 rows on my susie jacket. I decided to pick up the yarn at Joannes fabric when I was browsing. I found skeins of natural 100% wool 465 a yard. Fisherman knit wool. Here are pics so far.

I finished the Kelmscott today and I love it. I struggled a little making sense out of the pattern crocheted buttons, but I found an on line site that helped me out. I love how this sweater fits. I will take more pics of me wearing it tomorrow.

I have 4 pattern repeats done on the Flirty tank top. I will work more on that this week.

I have started a lacy tank top for my daughter Y2 knit flirty tank. I have 1/3 of it knitted and I plan on lengthening the lace part by 2 more lace repeats and shorten the upper tank empire section by an inch or two to lift it from the waist to below the boobs. the photo for the pattern seems for shortened and a little long in the upper part. I cant wait to see how it turns out it has been great fun knitting up.

It has been many days since my last post, but I have excuses. I am going on a mission trip with my church to the Dominican Republic. It has been taking up many extra hours and days, but I have been knitting all along.

My Kelmscott is almost complete. I only have one sleeve to seam and put on and then the collar and buttons. I ran out of yarn at the end of my last sleeve with only a 6 inch tail. I sent out an sos and Great Thanks to a ravelry friend who sent me enough yarn to complete my sweater.
