The “I Heart Knitting Totes”:http://karissacove.com/journal/2006/06/05/the-i-heart-to-knit-tote/ are definitely coming along — I’ve got all the letters cut out and sewed onto the fronts of the purses, sewn all the pockets onto the lining and attached the magnetic snaps:
Basically, all that’s left is sewing the fronts and backs together and they’ll be all done.
New “Etsy”:http://karissacove.etsy.com stuff:
Ever since I started knitting a few years ago, I’ve been waiting to feel confident enough to knit myself a sweater. (In all honesty, it’s been a life goal since high school, but keep it under your hat…)
I decided last week that I’ve finally got the skillz to pull it off, and after I poured over my knitting magazines and books looking for the right pattern, I chose the Lucky Wrap Top from “Stitch N’ Bitch Nation”:http://amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0761135901/ref=nosim/karissacove-20. It’s got a simple clover lace pattern throughout, ties at the waist with a knitted band, and is just _toooo_ adorable for words!
Over the weekend I completed the back and blocked it, take a look:
At this speed, I should be done before I know it, and that’s good, because I can’t wait to wear it!
