Adventures in Blocking
So a fellow Geek knitter took up the call to help and brought the Spidy blanket to block somewhere cat free.
Two things happened, It blocked out HUGE. That is half the conference table at my office. A table that seats 10. That tiny looking square is my iPhone. I put it on as a cape when it was brought over. So it should last the kid a while right? She’ll be loving her new blanket forever. It will be on that crappy futon in her first apartment after college.
That is the blanket pre-blocking, you may notice that there was webbing on this second photo. It had to be pulled out and put back on, I hit four spokes on the bus this morning while drinking my latte, and reading A Feast For Crows. So if I focus I will likely be done soon.
Done by Geek Knitting on Thursday? One can hope.
And I finally started and my first project for Nerd Wars.
The 75 yard Malabrigo gloves, left over from T4 Nerd Wars. Added to the pile of someone will get these eventually gifts. Now I have to swatch by Thursday for my Dissertation submission, a beaded lace shawl, Adoro. All while trying to work out a couple new designs.
Ares and Aphrodite, seem to want to go hand in hand. Perhaps I’ll throw in Hephaestus for a knitted love triangle. We’ll see what comes out. And I really want this Work + Shelter yarn for Apollo V2.
