knitting!
Michey:
I wish I knew how to knit. Seems like a fun pastime.
I do, however, enjoy cross stitching. Here are two of my works-in-progress.

I have started my hoodie! So far I have finished the front two panels up to the armpits. I am going to do the back and sleeves, and then join them at the yoke and work it as one piece up through the hood. The edging is seed stitch both at the bottom and the midde. There will be seed stitch lining the cuffs of the sleeves and the edge of the hood as well. The seed stitch areas will, once the garment is finished, have pink yarn woven into it to look like contrast stitching like you'd do with sewing. All in all a good project so far! I get a lot knit on the train to and from work.
(Yes, I know some of the brown in the left half is off - it's the same dye lot, too. I haven't decided if I'll start over yet.)

Ahh I miss cross-stitching, and knitting. I started sewing up my cuddly animal kits today, a fox cub and a bat. Just need to buy some stuffing tomorrow but I know I'll end up coming home with a cross stitch kit too.
SailorPunk:
Heather - that is sad about your dye lot. I have also had that happen. It fills me with boiling rage.
Is it maybe just that part of the ball?? Maybe just that part was off and if you started over from a different part of the ball it would be ok?
heather:
You can't really tell in normal light. And I'm going to be the one wearing it, so it's not really that big of a deal. It'll have "charm"! :D
