I have two active projects right now if you don't count the sock that's under construction. I've been pretty focused on my Starting Point, but the other day I decided to mix it up, so I bounced over to the other project.
It turns out Portland Sequence has a lot in common with Starting Point.
More stripes. I can't seem to get enough of them.
Our farmers' market opened this week, and I'm thrilled. All I need to do is add rhubarb to this week's color inspiration.
Ready for pie.
Every once in a while I declare a knitting day, and yesterday was one of those days. On Saturday I had a long, lovely day at Squam, so I was ready to unplug and take a day off. No work, no email, no cooking. I did a quick tidy in the kitchen and took the dog out, but that was it.
If I'd been more virtuous, I would have woven in some of these ends.
Note that I have another set of ends identical to this colorful mess. That's a lot of weaving in, and I haven't even finished the project yet.
But I wasn't virtuous. Instead I knit my way through the day and made a few more ends along the way.
Starting Point MKAL. The final clue for this project was released the other day. I'm playing catch-up, and I'm curious how all of this is going to come together. Today I'm still behind, but this was the perfect project for a day off. Miles of striped garter with a bit of eyelet thrown in for good measure.
On Saturday I had a long, busy day in Rhode Island, so when I woke up on Sunday, I was ready to take it easy. I shifted my expectations for the day and grabbed one of the knitting projects near the top of my heap.
When I first heard about the Starting Point MKAL, I was mildly interested. After I had assembled a few kits with different color combinations, I was in.
This MKAL is being released in a series of five clues, and already I'm behind. The second clue was released on Friday, but I'm still working my way through the first one. I finished one triangle, and now I need to knit another one just like it to complete the first clue. Only then can I start the second clue. I'm not sure I'll be able to catch up, but I'm playing by the rules.
