I cannot yet knit as before, but I recently feel strongly urge to knit a sweater for my DS....I have already had the yarn for it from last summer, same variegated yarn of my Pegan tank. The pattern has been also decided from Rowan Pipsquaks. I need just, a kind of cue, to start it....looks difficult to cast on now. I don't know why....


I had made a swatch for my new gloves too, but I have not yet casted on for it neither. Why, maybe because I know now I cannot make much progress as I want myself, and also I know I just might add another not-progressed, unfinished project....Is it negative thought?


For baby blanket, I had now a problem.....I have to repeat 3 times a set of stripe of color, but just at the border of last row of first set, I feel the choiced color for the border doesn't suit to the blanket. I don't know how I have to do....I cannot yet find the right color for it. So I am stucked. I need time so far....I am waiting a visit of my coloring muse.

Thank you very much for those of you who gave me warm words.... Now I have many projects for knitting, not only for newborn, but also for my DH and DS. My son is expecting me to make new gloves and cap for this winter. And my DH's birthday is coming at the end of November... I don't think that I could make something for him by the date....ummm. I have kept the real gorgeous yarn for his sweater. That is Merino yarn from Tasmania, natural cream color, really soft like cashmire and not at all itchy. My DH has some problem to touch the material which have "peach skin" like surface, and also some wooly stuff. It is the main reason why I cannot make much knitting project for him. But he can touch this Tasmania wool, so I got it for
one-day-I-could-make-a-gorgeous-sweater-for-him-project. I know it is not this winter....


On Friday morning I could knit only 2 rows before leaving for office. Today I did only 1 rows. Yesterday night, I could get some progress though....I continue anyway, to knit and to post h
ere.

My apologies for readers and thank you for your patience! Now I can come out my problem for not be able to knit for 2 months and a half.
I am now expecting a baby, it looks stable now as end of fourth months, and just recently my "morning sickness" is beginning to dissapear. Actually it has not been in the morning in my case, it was after-work time, late afternoon until night, everyday. It included my precious time to knit, and in that moment I felt so bad and nauseous, especially very unfortunately when I try to concentrate the movement of knitting needles. I could hardly stay sit up. In addition to that, my body needs sleep much more than usual, I could not stay awake hardly after 11PM. BUT it IS my knitting time! So far I am happy and lucky for baby but a little irritating for not be able to knit. Now my nausea is almost gone, but my sleepiness stays with me..... time to time, I try to sneak a bit time to knit, a cotton blanket for baby. Yes, that is my secret project. My baby is due in the end of April.


The day before yesterday, I put all my stash in order neatly. I am very satisfied about the result. I have some yarn to abandon, maybe I will put to sell on Yahoo auction, and I discovered again that I have tons of such a wonderful yarns!! Now my knitting is very....bit. Anyhow I can say I am knitting a baby blanket by cotton yarn, and small winter blanket by Rowan Chunky Soft, very, veeeery slowly like a turtle's walk.
