So, at Sunday knitting, I brought up the fact that I haven't had an FO since May. That's pretty sad, really. It's especially sad because my last FO was a garter stitch scarf. Hmm. However, as of tonight, Orangina is done. Can you believe it? I have another FO! Finally, I am proving I really can (and do) knit. I'm planning to wear it tomorrow to Knit Nite at Knitorious, where I will have Kara take a pic or two so I can show you this awesome project. It was a fun and fairly quick knit, and it turned out great. I'm so excited that it is my first adult-size knitted article of clothing that actually fits, and looks pretty good! I mean, I'm actually going to wear it in public, in front of other people; in front of other knitters, even. Woo Hoo!
You know what the best thing was about finishing this project? I got to call Kara and tell her it was done. I can't tell you enough how fantastic it is to have good knitting friends. Usually, I stand in front of the mirror in my craft room, and tell Muffin and Sam how exciting it is to have completed a knitting project. They are generally less than enthused. But Kara? She was thrilled, and so was I...
I can't wait to see it too! Orange is one of my fave colors... Kudos!

ReplyDeleteCongrats! I can't wait to see it! Don't you just love when something finished is wearable? Or maybe that is just me ;)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see it!! I am so happy for you. The most awsome and overwhelming part about finishing something is picking what's next!
ReplyDeleteSweet ass sweet...maybe you'd like to model for me next tuesday and we get our nails done. Ill need it after all this nature...
