Swatching
I have been reading the Ysolda book (Little Red in the City) and I have been empowered to swatch for my next sweater. I usually get gauge, but I mean a REAL swatch now :)
Here it goes
I am not using these colors, so I am swatching again. I will get a picture of that one when I start it.

Sorry I was on VACATION!
I have some pictures of me knitting on my vacation, but not much got done, so they were more or less staged ;)
Once I get them off the camera I will post them. I bought a new knitting book on vacation, so I will be blogging about that once I have read it.
I am going to use this post to say that once I finish the 2 shawls I have on the needles I am not doing another shawlette for a long long while! I am going to stick with socks or big circles.... I want to get through my garments and toys. Those are my new favorites, also socks, I forgot how fun they are! So quick!
So NO MORE SHAWLETTE... if you see one in my queue it is moving to the back! I have one scarf/shawl that I need to make as a gift. I have a small triangle on the needles that I am thinking of frogging! I am soooo done with shawls!

Okay I am back... sort of
I have knitting over lunch at work today, which is exciting. I may just finish my dress (I have been thinking this for weeks, but maybe this weekend will prove productive) So the dress is all that I have been knitting on. I have a test knit that I am trying to get going on, but I really want this dress done!
I did manage to get one thing completed. I have decided to post it... The new parents have not given me their address yet, but I think they are busy ;)
