WIP Wednesday - 03/05/2008
I was kind of hoping I would have an extremely productive week, knitting-wise, before March arrived and Bhen and I kicked our conditioning schedule back into a more intense gear, but between the 2 new kits and the new shop (which I think is letting folks pick the perfect yarn/colorway marriage, because boy! have we gotten some good-looking color/yarn combinations), that was not to be. I dyed almost all day on Sunday (7:30 to 5-ish with 1 break to run more packages to the USPS) and still didn't quite get all the orders filled. I am down to just a handful right now that came in late Sunday and Monday, so there is light at the end of the tunnel.
PROJECT #1: Seraphim Shawl
This probably doesn't look markedly different from last week's photo, but trust me, I did get through 6 more rows on this. Still a whole lotta stitches on the needles for each row, but I'm going to keep chipping away at this.
Goal: Knit 6 more rows.
PROJECT #2: Child's First Sock
I didn't even bother with a picture - I got nuttin here. I didn't even pick this up this week. I was waiting to work on it this weekend, and then.... well.... the world of dyeing got in the way. I think, considering how this weekend is looking, that I won't get to this again this week.
Goal: None - ON HOLD
PROJECT #3: Large Rectangle Scarf with Central Diamond Pattern
No pics of this either, but I did get all 5 of my goal repeats done (plus an odd half a repeat that I apparently stopped midway through the last time I put this down - took me forEVER to figure out where the hell I was in the chart). I'm more than halfway done the edging for the first long side. I'm going to press on with this.
Goal: Five more repeats.
All for now....

Well, if it makes you feel better, you got a whole lot more knit than I did!

Not much knitting happening here, either, but I have a better chance of getting to some knitting this weekend. Love that red!!

I think you did pretty good considering all the things with the shop you have going on.

I've been in a knitting doldrums, so anything looks productive to me! There will be lots of happy folks when that yarn arrives.

I'm sure if you counted the number of stitches, it would sound great!

The shawl is very pretty. You're doing really good I think with everything else on your plate.

Seraphim is really coming along! I think it's pretty impressive progress given your schedule. Heck, it's impressive progress even without it!!
