holiday projects
Hey hey....in ten days, I will leave for my vacation. So, now my most important thing to do is to choose knitting project to bring. Oh it is just a pleasure....imagining what to knit! But also, it is quite difficult. My vacation is 11 days, with my boys, DH, and DH's in-laws. Among family duties and boys care, though, it is my most precious time to knit, once a year.
Now I am wondering that, anyhow I cannot complete my Alchemy silk tank before leaving, so I have to bring it. The problem is, how many MORE I would let me bring...I searched into my stash(Good me, I didn't buy anything new for it!)to find some, here is my idea:
Cascade 220. (sorry the photo is not good, it is more beautiful wine red!)I have wanted always to knit "Sophie" bag of Booga J, and printed out its pattern, bought this yarn especially for this project. It requires only one skein of yarn, it looks most reasonable to bring with.
Rowan fine cotton chenille and 4ply cotton. These are for "Lime" cardi, a very cute but simple lace pattern cardi from Rowan 27. Recently I made a lace pattern swatch for work and it was really fun, since I feel strong urge to knit lace pattern stuff. The priblem is, my pace is not so speedy and if I cannot complete during vacation, I cannot absolutely put it on within this summer....
Rowan Calmer, for Alison's "Nothing but a T-shirt" pattern. This is also the one I wanted to knit very much this summer but I cannot never find a moment to start it. It is five balls project and also I love to try Calmer for the first time in my life.
I know I know, it is NOT AT ALL reasonable to bring all. I have to choose one, or two....aside of silk tank. sigh....
