I am a bad Blogger

I cannont believe that I have gone so long without a post. School has me so busy writing essays that I have no time to write a blog entry. Much less get anything elase done. I do get to knit while I am reading so I have 2 FO's to show off. I knitted a ribbed scarf. Here are the details: one skein of Noro color # 95 US #7 Needles Pattern: k4, p4 over 24 stitches My Second FO of 2006 is another scarf which is a sample to show how my handspun knits up. Needles #7 Yarn: Handspun DK weight about 200 yards. I CO 24 stitches and knit 4 rows in Garter then Row 1: k4, purl to last 4 stitches then k4 Row 2: knit across I repeated this until about 6 yards of yarn remained and knit 4 more garter rows than CO. This is the Spring Colorway and I have an Autumn Colorway in the superwash wool. Here is a close-up of this scarf. I also have cast on the Fickle Fingers scarf from the Winter Issue of IK I really like the way it is comming I am using a Jo Sharp yarn and I making it into blocks of color. I should have it finished by next weekend. I have been contemplating the Knitting Olympics that the Yarn Harlot has going on but if I do I am thinking about a sweater. I have never knitted one and I think that it would be a feat for me to complete it in 16 days. I am looking at a couple of them if you all have any ideas for a easy one please let me know. Here is my tote of the day for the tote-along.
