Are you bored yet?

I’m much more excited about making stitch markers than I am about my knitting projects right now. The Flower Basket Shawl frustrates me with the numbers issue, and I’m not sure how to proceed. The Cable-Eight is cool, but I have some thinking to do since I’m re-writing it. It isn’t going to fit me anyway, so I’m not overly motivated. The VCC seems very content piled in a heap on the floor waiting for sleeve cap surgery.

Nothing is sweet-talking me right now, except for these beads. I respond well to sweet-talking. Hence,

It may make for boring blogging, but it is good news for those of you who are in the gift-pool. I’m going to be gifting more than 5 of you.

In other news, I’m starting to feel up to writing out Lauralund finally. Thank you all for being so patient. As for the lacy Noro hat, well, that one’s still a ways out.

    The stitch markers are so cute! I love them! I hope when I attempt to make them, that they turn out as great as yours do!

    I’m glad to see that you are going to write up the Lauralund pattern. I never made the Klaaralund because I can’t imagine it really suiting me. Very cute in theory, but in practice, not so much. The Lauralund, however………

    re the flower basket shawl..are you sure the your pattern is right? the left side looks ever so slightly different to me.I have looked at it a few times and it doesn’t look entirely symetrical. It may be the image on my monitor so I apologise if I’m wrong.

    Ooh, Lauralund is good news. 🙂 And your stitch markers are so pretty again. I love the red ones in the top row!

    It’s good to take a break from knitting if it starts to get frustrating… (Um, or do as I seem to have done and start half a dozen new projects just to toss them to the side when the next temptation comes along.)
