From Extra-Spicy to No Spice!

So not much has changed on the projects I was working on last time: The mouline sweater sleeves are blocking right now, and the rest is ready to be seamed. The pink dinosaur has a spiny back- but no eyes or tail bits. The front of the tennis sweater is about two inches past the waist decreses.

I started a new project:


It's Shedir, from the Breast Cancer Mini-Issue of Knitty. I'm using Rowan Calmer in Amour, and it's a lot of fun. Except for the row I made a mistake on, and spent two hours figuring out what I did wrong (decreased too much!) and then ripping back and fixing it. And no, it's not for me, it's for someone who actually looks good in red. ;)

And then I got my wisdom teeth out on Friday, so instead of finishing Shedir this weekend, I knit up a ball of Jiffy for some poor cold cat or dog somewhere.

And now I have to buy another ball of something similar to Jiffy because I only have one ball left, and that's not enough to make a square blanket. Oh well. Kitties need love too! I would post a cat picture, but you know, I don't have a cat. So you'll just have to be happy with Clive the bear up there, who was a "don't die getting your wisdom teeth out or I'll kill you deader" present. Aww. Isn't he cute?

And what is up with all the bobbles in the Winter Vogue Knitting? Seriously.
