kal chat and a sneak peek!

wednesday already? as in knit along wednesday with luvinthemommyhood?? this day of the week always creeps up on me, because i always wish i had gotten more knitting done throughout the week for the kal. haha. anyone else feel guilty on wednesdays?

before i get into the sweater chat though, i've promised a sneak peek for ya... my market knitting has been on fire!

i'm loving all of the colours... but now that i've got your attention...


truth be told though, i tend to feel guilty for no reason.. i'm just hard on myself. ha. but it's a good incentive to keep those needles clicking away, with the promise of a finished sweater before too long... so really, i do love kal wednesdays. i love seeing how you are all progressing on your gorgeous sweaters... and my queue for patterns and my desires for yarns grows in leaps and bounds every week :)

so how am i doing? still knitting away. there are a lot of stitches on this bad boy...but i'm loving every stitch. for realz.

to give you a better idea, 'cause sometimes the picture is hard to read, i'm nearing the 8th buttonhole.

hip-hip hurrah!

i also have a confession to make... i've started a second sweater! this one is a test knit for isabell aka. lilalu on ravelry. this is called chalkstone it's her 3rd sweater in her beach series. you remember my test knit for driftwood? that was the second in series. i'm loving this so far! i've opted to knit this in a heavier weight. so far i'm loving the way this is knitting up. mmmmMMmmm...

in fact, i'm a couple of inches farther along than this photo.. but you get the idea :)
so really, i think i'm doing pretty great on this kal. let's hope i actually have an fo by the end of it though! ha. i have faith.

how are you doing on the kal? are you on your first, second, third sweater? hey. i know some of you totally have plans for it. loving all of the chitchatting on the ravelry group. you guys are amazing, and inspiring! xoxo
