i am very happy to report progress. i am absolutely loving knitting georgia. and as this is the very first time i've knit with sweet georgia yarns.. it's such a treat!
and now that i have the correct needle size, in nickle-plated knit picks no less.. i have to say, i'm flying on this project!
because there is very minimal shaping. (like none after you separate for the sleeves) it's the easiest knit. i can just take it anywhere and not worry about where in am in the pattern, you know?
and i'm just about done knitting the first cake of yarn. gotta love the yardage in a sock yarn, hey?
i have been so impressed by all of you kal-ers. you're so speedy! and man, my queue has grown more than i'd like to admit. haha. i'm also finding i'm crushing on more yarns than i knew i could too. ahaha. so thank you for that :)
i have been so excited to see the ravelry group so alive with the buzzing of chit-chat! honestly, you guys are awesome! and if you're thinking of joining in on a kal, this one is a great one! trust me! and there's lots of time to join in too. i know there's several of you who plan on knitting several sweaters! wowza!
how are you doing on the kal? where are you at? thinking of joining in on a kal? come chat! the sun is shining, and my needles are on fire! xo
I can't believe you just started and you are exactly where I am on mine...bah...lol :)
ReplyDeleteOooh, so pretty! Yes you're right about sock yarn yardage...can't be beat! It always surprises me to see how far I've knitting with just one cake :) Sorry that last sentence makes me laugh...knitting with cakes, what would Amelia Bedelia think :)
