Delivery Day!
Well, tomorrow I'm finally delivering the fair isle cardi. I've done all of the non-knitting finishing of it. I ended up having to buy the fabric that I needed for it at Mood (of Project Runway fame). What a nightmare it was trying to find the right fabric. It still isn't what I wanted. But it's completed. I'm going to write the pattern (actually just clean it up and input it into my computer) right after I post this entry.
I've finished the Baby Alpaca number. It took TWO DAYS to dry. Holy cow. And now it smells very alpaca-y. I guess baby alpacas shouldn't be left out in the rain. Particularly if it's a little chilly outside! They'll catch a cold because they'll never get dry!
The third thing that I'm delivering I haven't even blogged about. I picked up the yarn on Monday. Oh, yesterday!! I'm using a SWTC yarn. It's actually been a NIGHTMARE. There have been knots way too often. The other weird thing is that there have been long strands wound into the balls. So I knit off the skein and all of a sudden the active yarn ends. Grrrr. Anyway, that piece is getting a wash right now. Hopefully it will be dry in the morning and I'll be delivering it too. I have to write up the pattern for this one too. But that's ok. It's pretty easy.
I sold a few lots of yarn from Destash. It's still on there but I think it's a page or two back. So check it out if you haven't....
I had another Stitch & Pitch meeting today but I can't write about it because I'm too tired and I want to get going on the patterns so that I can go to bed!! I'll get back to you about it next time.

Just found your blog and am enjoying it! Inquiring readers want to know which way you knit that you are so speedy. And I can't wait to see the Alpaca project, as I've been eyeing that yarn at every LYS but just haven't hit upon the right project.
