Aspirations

Someday, I will make myself a Mr. Rogers sweater. I have photos of it (taken in-person, sort of), and when I get motivated enough, I'll find more.



But I'm not quite ready to design a sweater on my own just yet. I also have ideas for a breastfeeding sweater and kids' pajamas... so much crowded into my little head, I tell you.

Instead, I've been working on Clapotis, a scarf/wrap from knitty.com, in Rowan Tapestry, and so far am liking it (even though my knitting-uneducated husband pronounced the drop-stitch sections to "not look right")...



And I also spent the weekend learning how to knit in the entrelac style... sounds all fancy and requires a fair amount of attention but wasn't too hard. I'm making a little pouch/purse sort of thing, just big enough to carry my wallet, cell phone and keys. I know, I already made one - does anyone really want to question a woman's need for more than one bag?

I'm learning entrelac right now, too. Isn't it fun? The end result looks so much more complicated than you'd expect. ;-)
