You've come to the right place!

Yes. It looks different. My old blog was having problems. Some posts were not showing up and my graphics were all askew.

It will take some time but I will get all of my surf ring buttons back up. Please bear with me.

Thanks!

Blog catch up

I'm still here. I've been busy knitting and working. I have managed to get quite a bit done on Alan's Alan. I've finished El Tigre socks and have cast on another pair.

Also, I'm working on Estonian Lace scarf from zephyr in the ruby color.

Pictures will be posted this weekend. I promise. Until then, use your imagination.

2 steps forward, 1 step back

That's what I'm doing with my Oregon. I picked up the stitches for the sleeves and just didn't like the fact that the "v" was pointing the opposite way as the rest of the sweater. So, I frogged it and cast on for the sleeve to be knit from the cuff up. I'm happier doing it this way as I can then knit the facing for finishing off the sleeves much like I do when I do Dale sweaters.

Also, I am going to have to frog the bands as well. I need to pick up the back of the neck stitches and knit up about an inch and then do the bands again. The back of the neck is much too low. This is my plan. Whether or not it will work remains to be seen.

I'm watching some buttons on e-bay that will just be perfect with this. See?

I know, I know!

It's been a long time since I've blogged. Sorry. I've been busy having a life. :-)

I got the front bands of Oregon done and the back neck looks awful. I picked up the stitches of the first sleeve and all seems to be going well with that. I've been asking for help on from the KBTH group regarding suggestions for the neck band, but so far no responses. Anyone else have suggestions or problems with the back of the neck being low? If so, please contact me!

This post will have to do until I have more time.
