Okay - it's been two and a half months since I posted. Where did I go? This is not me. Well, its not the me I wanted me to be. In my delusions of greatness I am posting at least 3 times a week and knitting like a fiend. There... it's out there. Now maybe I'll do it. Maybe.
I've been in an organization phase, which may or may not have come on by watching a "Hoarding" episode where the woman was a "container" Hoarder. I love containers. One difference though between her and me. I'm only allowed to keep stuff in one room (and a couple of other hiding places which I will never divulge). Another difference? If it's not yarn, I love throwing stuff out. When I fill up a garbage bag it makes my heart full. Sometimes I pick stuff up and throw it away just to fill a bag. If you tell Paul I will deny it all. LOL
Anyway, my craft room is looking spiffy except for the closet which is like a big tupperware cabinet (you know exactly what I mean). I have big plans for it though, modular plastic even. Stay tuned and when it's complete I'll post some pictures.
When last you heard from me I had just finished a Radiating Star Blanket and Dolphin for my nephew Daniel. I have since made another blanket and a cute pink little pig (well, it's not really little) for my niece, Livvy. I didn't take photos though. I was off my photo game and immediately put it in a box to send to her. I'm hoping she will send her Auntie Daniele some pictures so I can post them later.
I've also finished a pair of socks that I had going for way way too long. Just plain Jane ones.

and started another pair using the Chroma Fingering from KnitPicks.

The colorway is Sunrise. Not sure I like the yarn content (splity and not spun tight - almost like a pencil roving) as these will be handwashed and I love wearing my socks, but the color changes are awesome and I'll get lots of excitement (although probably not wear) out of them. I bought some of the worsted weight because sweaters and such I can keep going a lot longer without using Superwash.
I've also started a new cardigan. I'm really excited about it. The construction looks like lots of fun, and the cardigan is pretty awesome too. Win Win and cables, which I haven't done for awhile.
It's Carmela's Cardigan from Paton's #860, Shetland Chunky, Top Down Classics. The first piece is knit straight and I'll be working down from it next. I'm using Paton's Setland Chunky Tweeds in the Sea Ice Colorway.

and I only miscrossed one cable so far (that was a two hour cuss fest). I lost my place and I couldn't for the life of me figure out where I was on the chart after I ripped back to it. Live and learn these cable charts. I vow!!
What are you up to?
