Some things I'd like to make today:
---an Argyle vest for my guy. I'd make a really crazy one as a joke ("Teach like your hair is on fire!")
And then I'd give him a seriously good-looking vest for a Christmas present.
--a Not-Sparkly Sweater for the girl who does not wear princess dresses. It would be a quick knit in bulky yarn the colors of a swimming pool. I'd add polka dots to the sleeves and wavy stripes to the body. This sweater would make you want to jump up and dance.
--more embroidered squares for the Swamp Thing Afghan. I discovered that I can weave in the ends of my knitting in Loud Contrasting Colors. Really terrible colors can mix together in exciting new ways. I added some extra ends just so I could sew them in. It looks full of thunderbolts.
--knitted explorations, gauge squares in condo knitting, in kniting wool alternated with fish line, and in intarsia using variegated yarn
--I feel like making something furry out of yarn. Maybe I'll go find that bag of fun fur. I need to find out if it works to use two or three fur strands at once. Plus I want to make wool fur using hairpin lace.
I ought to be super busy, but I have too many choices. Can't decide what to do. I wish I had completed the wolf costume in time for Halloween. It's not needed now, but it's still on my mind.
