we had a very successful knit night last night…
chris, the ring leader of our group was there… i don’t think he’s on Ravelry yet… but with a little twisting of his arm… i’m sure we can bribe him into signing up… he brought his sweater he had taken a break from… somewhat of a classic design… never can go wrong with those… it took him a few to get back on track to where he had left off… it took gabriel who helped him pick up some dropped stitches to get him completely back on track…
speaking of gabriel… one of our group’s knitting geniuses… brought his gorgeous green sweater he’s working on… i believe it was the back pannel… being the great knitter that he is… i’m sure it will be done very soon… he spent more time teaching the two fo us rather than working on his project… thanks…
as for me… i wish i had been working on a sweater… everyone knows how much i love them… but sadly not on my needles at the moment… well i’m starting a new project i’ve put off for forever and a day it seems… socks… i know i know… i made an aran sweater as my first real project… then gloves and hats… and now socks… i’m a bit backwards it seems… next thing you know i’ll be learning how to cast on… oh wiat that happened last night as well… hahaha… said sock had to meet my standards of my approval… so the toe, short row heel, and cuff will be done in a solid… and the body in a mock tweed… it’s mainly being knit this way so the heel will have a pretty ninety degree angle in it… compared to the heel flap and gusset look… so being the great teacher that gabriel is… he taught me what i was doing wrong with my short rowing… and how to cast on a turkish toe up cast on… and a new cast on for sweaters: the cable cast on… lots of learning going on for me last ngiht…
we had a great time… a few drinks… a bunch of knitting and learning… and catching up on each others lives… it was great to see chris and gabe again… can’t wait to do it again… maybe we should all grab lunch one day next week…
hopefully more people will show up next time… we were missing at least 3… life seems to get in the way sometimes… but understandable…
i know we have two new dallas based members that have joined Ravelry's Fruits and Fibers… maye we can talk them into coming out to knit with us next time…
well i can’t think anything else to say… hope everyone has a great day… keep knitting…
cheers mates…
