Proof Positive the Needles are Still Moving

Glorious Colors ain't so glorious yet. I can work on this for exactly 1.6 minutes before my hands start to sweat. I have no one to blame but myself.

I also didn't get nearly as much done this weekend as I thought I would. Glee started like this:



and ended like this:



I'll spare you from squinting. The bottom is finished, as is one neck band, and the one sleeve is about 2 inches away. Stellar, I know.

Something Blue

Thank you ALL for the congrats. It's still not real - he surprised the freaking hell out of me. Wedding mania has gone into full swing because we are insane and going to try and plan a 350+ person wedding in 6 months (We are Armenian and Italian, so the guest list gets long, FAST). My previously-married friends have shared a wealth of knowledge (and books! My lord there are a lot of wedding publications out there!), so away we go. All we know so far is 1) it is going to be a traditional Armenian ceremony, 2) it will be in February.



I promise not to inudate this blog with wedding stuff but it is pretty darn exciting for the moment. Does anyone have a suggestion of "something blue" to knit? I was thinking a dainty little hanky knit w/ Alpaca Cloud on size 0 needles, that I can tuck into the dress and use during the day. Any others?

To distract myself, I started the Glorious Colors Afghan because it is huge and mindless. I also picked up the Summer version of Knit.1 @ Joanns after passing over it a few times, and I noticed some designs that I hadn't before (you have to keep refreshing the page to see new designs). The knit dress would ROCK in wool/alpaca for late fall, the little yellow cami is perfect for the beach this summer, and the short-sleeve blouson is just plain Kay-UTE!

Now I have to get into work mode. So hard right now!!!!

I Said YES

DUDE you guys.....



He did it at the new house.





I'm still in total disbelief and haven't regained full use of my brain!
