knitting report

just a few finished projects: i realized that the super soft yarn i was using to make the herringbone scarf was not going to be long enough to finish, so i started over and made this: it's plain and simple garter stitch, but i cast on for the entire length instead of width. i'm liking the way it turned out - kind of military-girly (as suggested by my friend amy) also, my new favorite quick and easy project - dishcloths! using sugar n' cream cotton yarn, which has become my favorite yarn right now. i just stocked up on lots and lots of yarn to make adella a few summery things, plus some extra skeins to make more dishcloths! the two completed dishcloths have been confiscated by adella, and are now being used as blankets for her animal friends. i also finished weaving in the ends of the sweater, and i ripped out the neckband. it fits fine now, with the unfinished neck, but i have to think of a new way to finish it without making it any smaller. i am happy with the sweater again, now that the weather is warming up, of course. and sweater is happy to come out of confinement.
