Jaywalker and clapotis

I was supposed to have the Jaywalkers done at the end of last month. Alas, I’m behind on this.

The next pair in the a pair of socks a month along, is the Blueberry Waffle Socks, that I’ll call the Orange Peel Waffle socks, given the yarn I’ll be using

then there is Clapotis (the very same that I frogged not that long ago, due to a completly missplaced little YO)

The day

March 4th, 2006 by Cecilie | No Comments | Filed in Knitting

today is the day. yes, it’s one of those days.

I’ve been together with mr.man (also known as Otto) for 6 months.
It’s been a slow day, doing nothing, not realy, speaking to few people, and knitting just a few rounds on Clapotis and Jaywalker.

It’s been a good day, cuddle and relax, no stress, nothing to worry about, just being.

Lately I’ve been reading this realy cool blog called Nerd Knits. I want to make my blog like her, I want to be able to knit like her…

So my knitting ego was down the drain today (and well, has been since I finished FBS). What did I do then? I put on Nordlandskofta I made this summer, since it is cold, and I like to wear it. And when looking at the strangly complicated pattern and all the fair isle work… It hit me, the simple little fact that I really am a good knitter.

Despite having to frog Clapotis the other day and start over again. I do have skills. actually it wasn’t just the fact that I had to frog Clapotis that made me down, it was why… I did a yarn-overĀ  after a marker then k and ktbl. The stich would not drop more than 5-6cm. Argh?
