Brioche Scarf

Someone, please smack me. I'm 2/3 of the way through Clapotis and Saturday my mother and I went to Finely A Knitting Party where I bought two skeins of Lamb's Pride - worsted in Pine Shadows and Mulberry. Now I'm 7 inches into the Brioche Scarf from Weekend Knitting.

Before the day is through I will post pictures!

Oooh Oooh Oooh

I found this link for knitting graph paper.

Enter the number of sts and rows for a 4-inch square and it'll make graph paper for that gauge.

Procrastinating


I had the best of intentions. Really, I did. I went to Technicolor Sheep last night and looked high and low and found many lovely yarns I could have used for the Sudoku afghan. But no I bought some aurora melange 0019 by Karabella yarns instead. It feels so nice and I love the colors. I'm using it for Clapotis and so far it's knitting up quickly.

I've decided Sudoku would be better served as a stash busting project something simple and inexpensive. Tonight I'm going to work on a pattern. I can't decide if I should use bold colorways and simple garter stitch (which I hate) or simple colors with bold stitch patterns. I think I'll do a gauge strip of each and see which I like better.

Aches & Pains

Wow! I had no idea there were people out there wanting to know more about my Sudoku Knitting. I guess I better actually get started on it. I've been busy looking for a new job, planning my wedding, and dealing with a flare-up of a nerve injury in my right arm.

Another thought I had, and this one I've already started, is to do a Sudoku sampler. Using the same yarn, but different patterns arranged like Sudoku.

Send me a link if you've started or finished a Sudoku knitting project.
