Help me choose!


So Many Ideas..., originally uploaded by Wileycomma.

I already have a ton of socks on the needles, so I'm running out of needles.

However.

I want to knit some colorwork.

My lack of needles won't stop me, but my color indecision will. I think I've got the colors for mittens worked out, but I'm not sure which colors to use for an Inga hat. I'm thinking the oatmeal with the mustard, and use the pink as the other contrasting color. Or maybe I don't want to knit an Inga hat at all...

Any ideas? [Click the photo for Flickr notes.]

Time and Lazy

It won't stop raining. It's been cloudy for days. I'm still knitting, but I'm not knitting what I want to. Why is it that anytime I'm free, I don't feel like doing the math for my sweater, but as soon as I have things to do, I really want to work on it? And I wish I had a printer. It's fairly annoying to have to go to my grandparents' houses anytime I want something printed off, like charts, for example. I can't knit my colorwork mittens away from my desk right now because I have to sit in front of my computer to read the charts. I suppose I could copy them down by hand...But I don't have any graph paper and I really don't want to draw a ton of squares.

I've got to go volunteer at my local hospital.

Mitten!


Mitten!, originally uploaded by Fletch Knits.

I have a feeling that this is going to end up too small. Again. I've tried colorwork mittens before, and my stitches are super uneven and too small.

In other news, Michigan Fiber Festival is tomorrow, so I'll be going to that. Woo! See you Sunday!
