Sally and I share many interests, but knitting is our passion. We decided to share a blog because, as I said to her, it’s like having a garage sale — I don’t have enough to do one of my own.
My current WIP is my third Hanne Falkenberg jacket. I am making the Ballerina #13. I am probably about 40% done. Even though it is acres and acres of semi-mind numbing garter stitch, I am enjoying it.
I have been trying to stay focused on one project at a time and find that I make a lot more progress. I finished Mermaid #6 in 23 days and my Rogue Hoodie (see Sally’s link) in 12 days. And I am not a speed demon with the needles.
If you check in now and then, you will find that Sally and I knit about 75% of the same projects. Fortunately for Sally, she has to knit a lot less than me because she is 5’5″ and I am 5’11”. It is unfair, but cannot be helped.
Susan – Love all the pictures of your completed projects! My favorite is the little cell phone purse (which is about my knitting ability these days). It’s very cute. Did you design it yourself, or is there a pattern somewhere? Wouldn’t it make a cute little gift!?
Thanks for starting with blog with your sister. It’s great to see what others are knitting!
