I have been busy knitting in the last few days.
I started and finished the helmet liner for my favorite Lieutenant nephew in regulation colors of black and green wool. It fits me and I think it will be ok. I will have pictures soon.
I also started and am up the the armpits on a cardigan for my favorite great nephew. Ok, there is only one great-nephew, but you know what I mean. It is using Encore Colorspun and coming up with great stripes. My cardigan is still on snooze for the time being but hope to back at it soon for a bit before I start a baby surprise jacket--also for the afore mentioned favorite great nephew. I have been wanting to try it, but was afraid I wouldn't know how to seam it after I knit it. But one of the gals at Knit Club is making one, so maybe she can help.
I have amost finished Gertrude, the duct-tape dress form. Currently she is riding in the trunk of the car . I need to add a bit more fiberfill and then cut some cardboard to fit the bottom and she will be done. I am worried about the weight on the hanger, so I may need to try to wriggle in a new heaver one before I seal her up. Again, pictures will be forthcoming.
Oh, did I mention that we finally had some snow last weekend? Not much, but at least it we had some accumulation. At last.
