shall we get it finished?
the past weekend was one of those you felt like you were knitting like crazy but there was nothing to show, or at least nothing exciting to show.
so, i was trying to tidy up all the projects i started back in the spring, i had hopes that i'd finish the baby cardigan, but due to several ripping and reknitting, it is still waiting to be sewn together. also, due to excessive/obsessive blocking, i may have flatten the ruffling a bit too much! so, i took it off the blocking board and let it sit and regain its ruffling shape before constructing it into a proper garment. knitting is such a forever learning experience, isn't it?
i am also knitting along the skirt but have nothing to show. i'm hoping by the end of this week, i will be able to finish all the increases and begin the fun part - stripes of summery sorbet colors!once i've finished the baby cardigan and the socks for my dad, i am thinking of starting this halter top with GGH capri i bought earlier this year. what do you think? i know i can not wear the halter top to work, but at least i can wear them during weekends, so i'm not just knitting something that i'll never wear. i'm all for practical knitting!

I love that halter! I'm going to have to see if I can find that magazine somewhere. I think you could wear it to work with a jacket. I'm not sure if you ever have to wear suits, but I'm constantly looking for summery tops to wear under my jackets. The baby cardi is precious - so cute. I'm really excited to see your progress on the sorbet skirt - it seems like such a lovely summer project.
