Faggoted Rib Cloth....COTW

This week's COTW....the Faggoted Rib Cloth. Okay, you know I don't really care for the lacy cloths but this one has gotten to me. It's just so pretty. This is another one I could see becoming something else. It knit up so fast it was unbelievable! It's one of those designs that makes you look like a better knitter than you possible are. It was pretty simple though or it would have taken me a lot longer to finish. I used Sugar & Cream in Pretty Pastels.

I had my other Halloween design knitted up...almost finished....when i decided that I didn't like the way it looked. His head was WAY too big. lol I frogged back to his neck and now am trying it again with a smaller head.

Halloween Dishcloth & COTW

I finally finished the first of two Halloween designs I've been working on. I just posted it on my other site. http://dishingknitout.blogspot.com/ I hope to have the other one posted in a few days.

I have been having computer issues and haven't been able to function using my back-up. It just isn't as fast as the new one. Of course, since the new one isn't working, I have to say this back-up is now the better of the two. lol

I also got my COTW done. This one has taken me longer to finish than the others...not because it was hard (it wasn't)....just the rut this computer has gotten me into. This is the Lace Chain Panel cloth. It's very pretty but I don't particularly like lacy designs for my cloths. This one will probably go to someone else. I said that like it's something new...lol.

Cross your fingers for me that I get my computer fixed this week. I sure hope so. I do miss that contraption. I was told it didn't appear to be a big thing but that remains to be seen. I have a lot of blog hopping to do and I miss my blog hopping. I don't know what's going on with all my friends lately. I've been trying to keep up with everyone but this computer doesn't always co-operate. So just in case anyone is wondering....I haven't fallen off the face of the earth and I am SO NOT ignoring anyone. I miss checking in on all of you.

Spot On! Cloth....COTW

This week's cloth is a round one. I again learned a new trick for not having holes and this one was also a quick one to knit. I love the round cloths and am keeping this one so NOBODY EVEN ASK. lol I used some Sugar & Cream that I had in my leftover stash so I have no idea what the color is other than some shade of blue. It was actually an entire ball but the apparently was used and frogged and the label was probably thrown away. I really need to stop doing that.

Labor Day & Knitting

This is how we spent our Labor Day afternoon...well, some of us anyway. My 2 1/2 year old nephew, Killian, knows how to relax on a hot day. The temperatures weren't too bad today compared to the last few weeks. It seems like it's always hot and humid here in the South though. We didn't do any cooking out today but it was nice just the same.

I did get a little time to work on the COTW for this week. This one is called Spot On! I was a little confused at first but I think I have it figured out now. The last row of the pattern for each section threw me off a bit. It's different from other round cloths I've knitted before. I hope I'm doing it right anyway. lol

If you look closely at my needle, you'll see the curve. Poor things are overworked and starting to curve a bit from all the use. I got these on eBay and they were a great deal...not as sturdy as the Clover needles but they do the job. I haven't had one to break yet. I love my bamboo needles...don't touch metal unless I have to OR unless it's my Knitpicks Options. The only thing I've used them for so far is my Mystery Shawl (Feather & Fan) which I really need to get finished since the KAL has been over for a few weeks now. Maybe soon it will cool off and I can get around to actually wearing it. :)
