Grace Knits a LOT!

Knitting mostly but other crafts, too (crochet, cross-stitch, scrapbooking) and life in general.

UFOs

Here are some things I am working on...

This is the peapod sweater by Kate Gilbert (free from interweave if you belong to knitting daily). I am making this for my niece (1 year old).

Here is some detail of the peapod lace.


I am also working on Anne Hanson's Bee Fields Shawl. I am using merino laceweight in Tupelo Gold from Wooly Wonka Fibers.


Here is some detail of the beehive portion.


I am knitting up a storm these days! So many projects, so little time...

Newness

So, I have made the plunge and have purchased the new iMac (20", w/added RAM)! It is being configured right now and will ship in a week or so. I also just got a bunch of new sock yarn from the Loopy Ewe (YUM!!) that includes Duets, Wooly Boully, Misty Mountain Farm and more Tiny Toes from Interlacements (I LOVE this yarn). And, whilst I was on vacation, I received my Bee Shawl Kit from Wooly Wonka Fibers! I still have no internet connection at home (this is a stealth post from work) so, alas, no pictures. But just you wait! When I get my new computer, this blog will be LOUSY w/pics!

Anyway, even though I have a jillion ufos, I did start the Bee and was able to complete the setup chart last night. I thought I was a written out directions girl, but man, I must have morphed into a chart girl at some point. I was able to follow the chart MUCH better than trying to read the directions. BTW, the yarn is knitting up BEAUTIFULLY! I love it and knitting it, too!

Hopefully I will have a computer the next time I want to post so I can show you some eye candy!
