pink monkey knits

OK. But now I want a green or blue monkey.
Something in jewel tones, right?

I didn't wanna do it, I didn't wanna do it....

You made me mod you...
So I'm getting, for lack of a better word, "Blog_Spam" in my comments box... *SIGH*
So now you'll have to verify you're a person, not a borg, in order to post comments in this blog.

ANYhoo.

As you can probably guess by lack of self-congratulatory photos and gratuitous whoo-hoo-ing, I have yet to finish the Cardi.
I'm actually stumped by a phase of finishing- The back of the neck. The instructions say knit 2 and a half inches past a certain point, but that would leave a gap at the back of the neck; we have large-circumference necks. Should I add on or move on?
Any suggestions appreciated.

Roaring towards the finish line with Cardi.

So I'm nearly done with Dad's Cardi (stop booing, I know I have said it before, but this time, it's true.) The last major things to do are to obtain some nice buttons for it and to piece it together.

I hope it will be nice- I know he'll like it even if it's not perfect. I think I'm glad for it to be done, but I've got those omnipresent Finish Jitters.
I wish I knew someone nearby that actually LIKES finishing, as having a cheerleader would help, you know?
Hee.
Finish, Finish, Rah Rah Rah!
Project's done
We find no flaw!
Whoo! Go knitter! Whoo!

Intentionally Left Blank

Intentionally Left Blank
Hey! It's the Kindra-kin!
And she's still writing; which is more than I can say for me.

Good on her, then.

Work progresseth.

Illness proceedeth.
I've been knocked down by an undefined illness of an infectious type, and I've basically SLEPT through the past few days or so.

The sweater would have been useful last week for Dad. Gawd, I am such a procrastinator. WHY can't I finish the blamed thing?!?!?

It will be done. Even if I have to get a flock of ducks to nibble at me until I scream.
In my world, that last sentence made sense.

Get Friendstered. Though, you know? There's got to be a spoof site of that called Fiendster, for your World Domination Connectivity Needs.

I just split a seam in my kimono arm pocket on the arm of this chair. *sigh*

I wonder if anyone has thought of knitting a kimono, even though that would be a non-kimono.
A knit-mono, if you will.
Hmm.
Hang on a bit.
Well, HUH.
And ooooooooooohhhhhhhhso kawaii!
But nothing full length- I think this is wise, given how much firggin yarn you'd have to use and the sheer weight of the thing.

I typed "firggin" instead of friggin. Hee. Firggin.
