School and Knitting

So, I've been busy, and lazy. Let me catch you up. I'm back at school now. My senior year. And I can't really say I have senior-itis, because, well, I've had that since I was a senior in High school. I never recovered. Anyway, I wanted to show the world the scarf that I've been working on.


This is only the second knitting project I have ever done, and will probably be the first that I finish, although I shouldn't get ahead of myself. Its only about 11 inches long right now, and I still have another 50 or so to go. It's taking me forever. My current goal rate is one repeat a day, which equals about one inch.

The pattern is from the March 2006 newsletter from knittingetcithaca.com. Here's the link. The yarn I'm using is Bernat Softee Chunky in Pale Antique Rose and I'm using size 8 bamboo needles.

I've been looking up yarn and free patterns online for days. It's like I'm addicted, looking for the perfect pattern and the perfect yarn to go with it. Unfortunately, I'm poor right now, so I'm forcing myself to only work on the projects I already have the materials for.

More later!
