My name is Michelle, and I knit. This is me, knitting. Well, it's not me, it's my blog. Yes, this is my blog. And I knit. I'm learning more every day. Well, not every day but most days. Oh, and I'm vegan. I like it that way.

Progress



As of Sunday afternoon, the back, the left front and right front, and the collar are done. I've cast on and begun the ribbing for the first sleeve, and I hope to work more on it tonight.


Here's a close up of the pockets


and a close up of the collar.

Thanks! It's the "Long Sleeved Cotton Jacket" (even though I'm knitting it in classic elite bamboo) from Vintage Knits.

Wow! You're so quick! It looks great! I really like the pattern in the front. I look forward to finding out the pattern for that design. I hope all is well and I hope to see you in the next few weeks, I have some buttons from Rada what color are you thinking? I was actually thinking of going down to The Point tomorrow night to join that S'n'B but I'll have to see how the day goes. I'll try to let you know. Here's hoping you're feeling all better!

Excellent -- I was just thinking about Rada today and wondering about the buttons! Ooh, but color, I have no idea. Could we take a look at them and decide together? Last thursday I was sick (the worst of it, though I still don't feel great, yet) and the week before I was super tired, but this week I really intend to be there. So, see we WILL see each other soon--we must!

Hey, where did you get your Clover Plastic Cirulars? I need a 12 inch size 10.5 pair of circulars but I can't find any anywhere so I think I will have to settle with the Clover size 10 length 12. I've found some options on line but would love to have them for the weekend. Thanks!

Thanks for the sweet comments everyone!

Dede, unfortunately I bought the needles in Maine, which isn't going to help you. But, I just checked the Purl website and they had a size 10, 12 inch. I think the website is a little different from the store, so call before you go.
