Knitting News
Good morning! How are you and how is your crafting coming along? I continue to work feverishly on the christening blanket and am now mulling over how to finish it off without doing all of the remaining charts. I do not have much yarn left with the second skein. I do have a third optional color (similar to the first one) but I'm not sure if I want that and most of all I don't know if 500 yards will give me an additional inch of pattern based on how many inches I obtained with the second skein. If I could get the blanket to be 36 inches wide and long (it's a square!) I feel that would be enough of a blanket. So my wonderings are: how many add inches in blocking will I get? Definitely one inch per quadrant but would I get two inches? Three inches might be right out! Also, how do I finish it off? I am going to flip through some of my other knitting books for some ideas. Overall, I have loved knitting this and I'm excited to get it off the needles and give it a blocking....
Frodo is so my other favourite doggie! I wish he and Cardamon could meet! Have a great weekend. Jacinta x
ReplyDeleteYay! Walk time!
ReplyDeleteI just know Frodo is happy to be on his walk, getting it in before dinner? This time change has messed me up all the way around and I can't get my schedule to flow!

ReplyDeleteI just came in from walking Buddy in the woods, and here is a lovely picture of Frodo on his own walk. I like his handsome red leash and scarf. It looks like he's contemplating what could be around the bend...:-)
ReplyDeleteOh what a sweet moment; he looks so eager.

I wonder if your mini gets into as much trouble as mine does :-) Too cute!
ReplyDeleteHi, Frodo!!! Freddy is still walking us, too--just a bit earlier in the day. He would be very, very jealous of that dashing red collar/lead!
ReplyDeleteIs this a pre-dinner walk now? These short days are hard but Frodo sure looks pleased!
ReplyDeleteLovely walk!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful weekend :)
I have to admit, I came over to your blog because I saw the photo of Frodo with your comment on Lori's blog, and HAD to have a look at him, he's just ADORABLE! We have Miniature wire haired Dachshunds, and they have a bit of Miniature Shnauzer in them, so they are exceptionally cute! I love that you say Frodo owns you, I know what you mean! Vanessa x
