Ravelry...addiction!

I had to chuckle to myself when Renee wrote "addicted yet?" on Ravelry. I thought, well, I guess I probably will get some useful information from this site, maybe meet a few people....I have just spent the past 2 hrs. doing practically nothing there!!!
I got my invite last weekend, drinking my coffee last Sunday morning, we were all just lazing on the couch, hanging out, and I figured I would check my email....BINGO!
I was right on there, had my profile done in a matter of minutes, and was surfing around!!! I have to say that it is a great site, and a great way to bring knitters together.
On the knitting front, have started a sock pattern (can't remember the name of it right now!), then was working away on a little mitten kit that I picked up at the Kitchener Knitters Guild Fair a few weeks ago, only to get to one of the last parts, and there is no indication how many stitches to cast on!! Absolutely no indication, anywhere, no designer/distributors name anywhere! So frustrating as they were going to be soooo cute! If you have any idea where to reach the person who was selling this pattern there, or have done it before (as I recall her saying that this was not her first year there) PLEASE email me!!! I really want to finish them -- I did learn how to make a bobble though, that was pretty neat.
Lastly, I think I have decided to frog the blanket that I was making for my little guy. Yes, I have been working on it for over a year, but it just doesn't do the yarn or the colours justice, the way it is now. More to follow soon on this one- whether I have the guts or not!

Labour Day Weekend

Can you believe that it is Labour Day weekend already??

Hope you have all had an enjoyable summer of knitting, and are now planning your Fall projects!
There seem to be lots of great books coming out as well!!
Yey!!
I'll have some pics to upload next week.
I am working on a Patons project that I started last Fall, and never really got started on.
My goal is to have it finito in the next few weeks. It is a dark brown sleeveless vest make from Patons Decor. I don't usually choose this type of yarn, but it has a really good look to it.
I'll keep you posted!!

Oh yeah! My thanks to Renee, for her great workshops the past 2 Thursdays at Main St. Yarns in Milton. She taught me Entrelac, and Mosaic ---really quite fun!
