One Last Thing
Here I was deliriously happy that I can knit FOR MYSELF, exclusively...and then I go and decide to through one last knit project for Lorelei.
My mom made these for Lorelei ages ago...they finally fit, BUT we can only find one.
They are adorable, so I decided to re-engineer some, in purple. Going at my pace they'll be done...someday. Grin.
I have also been working on other things...I finally finished that old orenburg swatch. It grew...I had wanted to mount it in a shadow box, but it's a foot wide. It'll make a nice dresser topper.
Originally I knitted this swatch as a teaching aide and to help in constructing my Lorelei scarf...but I fell in love with the pattern of this swatch so I decided to go ahead and make a tradition orenburg scarf--with a bit of estonia tossed in for flavour.
Of course I only just started, but hopefully it'll knit up fast.
