"Now, let us all take a deep breath
and forge on into the future;
knitting at the ready.”
-Elizabeth Zimmermann-
The Opinionated Knitter
Six Annabel Cardigan's,
all knit and waiting
their turn for buttons
and tags! Can you tell
I'm smiling? I can't tell
you how happy it makes
me to see them all in
a row!
I feel a huge sense of
relieve to have the 'big'
knitting projects out of
the way, now it's on
to a few pairs of fingerless
a hat or two if there is
time.
To spice things up and
keep it interesting I am
and have plans to cast
on a few of these. Don't
you want to join along?
The more the merrier.
Reading is all about
knitting this week as
I have huge plans once
all my holiday knitting
is complete.
I am hosting a small giveaway
to be drawn on Thursday, please
stop by and say hello.
They look amazing all in a row!! Will you ever be able to get the six recipients to model them all in a row? That would be really something!
ReplyDeleteI've been humming and hawing about buying my first Elizabeth Z book on Amazon, because everyone keeps raving about her writing style and I need some'o'that in my life. Your quote is brilliant, and may just have tipped me over the edge. Or perhaps I need to educate my husband in the art of Amazon WishLists...
I read EZ's book before my knitting could keep up with her way of giving patterns. Now that I think about it I am not sure I can keep up yet. All that said, I do love the way she writes about knitting. So enjoyable to hear how she knits everywhere all the time in her own words.
DeleteYour cardigans look so lovely, and the buttons are incredible :)
ReplyDeleteWell done!

ReplyDeleteYou amaze me! What gorgeous colors! Such lucky recipients :)
ReplyDeleteTracey! You are amazing! Wow!
ReplyDeleteI'm still plugging away at my shawl. Ugh. So very ready to be done with it. I took a break yesterday and test knit a snowman (who knew my boys would love a snowman as much as they do?). Today I may try to start a dalek (dr who thing) for my sister's family. I suspect that I'd finish this shawl a lot faster if I'd stop letting myself get distracted. (:
Love. Love. Love your cardigans! They look amazing.
