it's friday! (i know you know that, i just like to say it). haha and this weekend as well as next especially i have lofty knitterly plans... i say especially because next weekend is already easter !! and my hubby has a 4 day weekend... sooo maybe i can sneak away for a bit of knitting time.. we'll see though..
but this weekend we have a season-end soccer tourney for my little... he's very excited.. and we are too!! we've also got plans for a backyard bbq - in someone else's backyard.... don't worry, they invited us.. lol..
i'm also hoping to actually make an appearance at knit night this week! ... depending on how late the soccer tourney goes..
we've got a full weekend planned! it's going to be a chilly weekend..... which demands a knitter's attention...
just sayin'....
what are you up to this weekend? any pre-easter plans? i'd love to know what you're up to, and what you have planned! come chat! it's a beautiful day for it! have a lovely weekend! xo
This weekend's projects are: Watching my husband start his first official knitting project. A reversible cable scarf that we found in a book called "Knits Men Want" by Bruce Weinstein. It is such a fun AND funny book. Full of great patterns for men. Not to mention rules about what men want in knitted stuff.
ReplyDeleteAlso...I VOW to finish my Rae Scarf #4... maybe even today. I've got the house to myself and after doing a little Dance Central I will probably sit and get it done... Well that's my "plan" anyway... :D
Then it's on to my next project... a crazy simple wispy cowl that I'm making up without a pattern I started it ages ago and thought it would be neat for spring. so i guess i'd better get it finished before spring disappears. :P Lol!
Hope you have a wonderful week/weekend. *Sending cheers* for your little man in his tournament and for some awesome knit time. Your knit nights sound like so much fun!
*Happy hugs* to you guys
your hubby is going to knit1!! how awsome!!! i actually just ordered some yarn to make the welted cowl (by jane richmond for sweet georgia yarns)... perfect for spring hikes :) i'm so excited for all of the knitting you're doing!! how fantastic to have the house to yourself to get some knitting done! pour that cup of tea and get clickin'! xoxox
DeleteLol! You Bet! :) My hubby is a math guy so he likes to figure that stuff out. He's actually helped to pinpoint AND correct errors in some of the patterns I'm looking through. But I'm gushing... *blush*
DeleteBut enough about him... :D
Thank you for all your help & support through the classes... and for just plain inspiring me.
*pouring tea... NOW!*
*clickety click click*
~.^
have a very happy and yarn filled weekend! xoxo
DeleteWorking on Dreiecke and wound my Rastita...not sure what I'm going to make with it but the colors and feel of the yarn are inspiring.
ReplyDeleteI'm also ogling Billow yarn on the Knitpicks website and hemming and hawing about spending money on their blocking boards. I've been knitting so many shawls lately and the ironing board/beach towel combo just isn't cutting it.
What are you using to knit the Welted Cowl?
Happy Friday indeed!
Yay! Can't wait to see your Dreiecke m'dear! Excited!!! I got some Billow but haven't decided what to knit it up for yet.
Deleteweee so great for knitting! i ordered some knit picks yarn for the welted cowl. and i actually also ordered a bit of the billow too... we'll see what it becomes :) i say go for the blocking mats at knit pics. you'll probably not find a better price, and clearly you'll use them! i am so excited to see your dreiecke! i bet it will be absolutely lovely! xo
DeleteHope you make it out on Sat. Would be lovely to see ya!
ReplyDeletei'd love to see you too shan! i'm going to see how owen's soccer tourney goes and then hopefully make my way there.. it depends though, because there's supposed to be a family night there afterwards. and we haven't talked about whether or not we'll stay for it. oxoxo happy weekend! xo
DeleteFun weekend plans!! And Easter is that soon? How'd that sneak up on me?
ReplyDeleteHappy weekending! xoxo
i know! it's crazy soon! definitely early this year! xo
DeleteAs you know, I'll be doing some packing this weekend before heading off to MONTREAL!! Thanks for your comment on my blog ~ I'll be sure to scope out as many LYSs as I can and I hear it's still quite chilly up north so sock knitting in the car it will be. Maybe I'll even finish a pair in time to wear them as I walk around the city. Happy knitterly weekend! xo
ReplyDeletespeedy sock knitter? ;) what is your fave pattern? i'm about to dive into sock knitting myself, once my needles come in. i decided i'll be a magic looper ;) have a fantastic weekend! xoxo
