Blocking

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


Here is the bag blocking on my living room floor. You can click on the image above for the super big picture if you want (Dial Up Beware), and check out the stitches up close. I think they are pretty even. If they aren't, oh well I am not froggin a darn thing! Anyways, I think I did pretty darn good for my very first Fair Isle attempt :) Zoe sure seems to like it...

I can't keep her off of it, and I'm worried she's gonna end up with a pin in her butt! I had to finally just cover it with a heavy blanket. I'm sure that anyone who has pets can completely relate to this. I will just take it as a compliment. Tomorrow I will be going to my knitting group and having an end weaving party. Photos will follow.

Are you sick of this project yet?? The plans are in the works for the next one. Remember this? I am swatching it as we speak.

Yahoooo!!

The knitting is all done, but as you see I still have to finish blocking it. I just got off of work, it's after midnight and I have to be up at 7. I don't think the blocking is going to get done tonight. I am planning on doing it after I get off work tomorrow. I want it all blocked so that I can take it to my knitting group on Saturday. Janette said she will help me weave in some of the ends. That way Rob will get a bit of a break. I'm off to bed. I'll post blocking pictures tomorrow.
